Spike - prefill standards

[marywang2]

Research spike to answer some questions around prefill standards:

• does prefill language (blue box) usually appear on the intro page even if there's no prefill? (seems to auto populate for some reason?)
  • where does prefill language/alert appear - does it appear on every screen?
  • is the prefill language customizable?
• how/when does prefilled data appear?

@brian-wilke fyi - feel free to add any other prefill questions to this ticket.

Attempting to find out from CAIA if there is a window for when the forms library will be updated to new language and if it must appear on each page.

• Prefill language (blue box) seen in this screenshot appears when the SaveInProgressIntro component is used. Currently it is in use on all IVC forms.

Save In Progress Intro

The text outlined in read may be replaced by setting a custom function signInHelpList in the formConfig and passing it to the SaveInProgressIntro

• The prefill alert (pictured below) appears on every screen where the page's 'ui:description' property is set to a value of PrefillMessage. The PrefillMessage component is a standard forms library component found here.

The prefill message may be customized by passing a custom React children prop containing new markup/wording to the PrefillMessage.

• Prefill data only appears when the steps outlined in this document have been followed. Namely, 1) A mapping on the backend is created to collect user profile data and reshape it to fit into the form, 2) the form has a prefillTransformer set up on the frontend, and 3) an authenticated user starts the form
