I know that we can display an entity list in web template using liquid.

So, is there any way that we can do it for entity form? Adding entity form using liquid in web template?

you can't access the entity form through liquid.. but you don't really need in my opinion

as you have you probably have your record GUID in the parameter, you can retrieve your record, and access the attributes in your liquid

docs.microsoft.com/.../liquid-objects

{% assign account = entities.account['936DA01F-9ABD-4d9d-80C7-02AF85C822A8'] %}

{% if account %}

{{ account.name }} ({{ account.statecode.label }})

{% endif %}

Hi Sahithi,

Yes, there is a Liquid tag for Entity Forms:

{% entityform id: page.adx_entityform.id %} or {% entityform name: 'My Entity Form' %}

Please note that this tag only works on Web Pages that are using a Page Template that is of type "Web Template". If it's on a web page using a Page Template whose type is "Rewrite", this tag will not work.

I just released a blog post that goes into a bit more details on the options, if you're interested:

Hi Oliver,

I can display the fields using the liquid objects, but then I would have no way to update the data.

Yeah, you can. I think you are looking for this answer:

//Include an entity-list using liquid-tags.

//Pass the name of the entity-list.

{% include 'entity_list' key:'Display Contact Lists' %}
