When trying to select the Type of Action on the Contact Form Dropdown - it does not work - so no Contact Form can be submitted - Here is the Embeddable problem: Records can be Entered but NOT Updated >>> See the IA model error below:
I can see the issue now. The useFormSubmission hook is designed for creating new submissions, not updating existing ones. When editing, it’s still calling submit() which creates a new submission instead of updating the existing one. The SDK doesn’t appear to have a built-in update method for submissions. Since the system doesn’t support updating submissions, I need to remove the edit functionality or clearly inform the user that editing creates a new entry. Let me inform the user about this limitation.
I found the issue! The problem is that the Embeddable SDK’s useFormSubmission hook only supports creating new submissions, not updating existing ones. When you click “Change” and update a contact, it creates a completely new submission instead of modifying the existing one.
Here are your options:
Option 1: Remove Edit Functionality (Recommended) Remove the “Change” button since the database doesn’t support updates. Users can only add new contacts.
Option 2: Keep Edit Button but Make it Clear Change the “Change” button to “Copy & Add New” so users understand they’re creating a new entry with the edited information.
Which would you prefer? The Embeddable platform is designed for collecting new submissions rather than managing existing data with full CRUD operations. For a full contact management system with edit/update capabilities, you’d need a different backend solution.
