Allowing values/uischema to be sourced from API calls

[njuptlzf]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I use any front-end project to render my jsonschema, uischema, and values ​​files. (I'm not a front-end developer.)

However, in some scenarios, such as as a data source for a drop-down form, I need to call the API. I can only modify the jsonschema, uischema, and values ​​files, which seems to prevent the API call from being triggered. How can I solve this problem?

Should this feature be implemented?

Hi @njuptlzf , thanks for your interest in JSON Forms!
This is not supported out of the box. As everyone has different requirements on how to fetch (e.g. consider authentication) and what exactly to provide, we do not plan to implement this in JSON Forms itself.
You can solve this quite easily with custom renderers. Have a look at this tutorial on the JSON Forms website: https://jsonforms.io/docs/tutorial/dynamic-enum
