Forms and form fields out of Tally without the tab work
Hand a companion the outcome. It reads the Tally forms, does the 3-operation version of the job, and stops for your click on anything that changes a record.
Open the form. Check it against something else. Write the change. Move to the next one. That is the Tally afternoon nobody can hand off, and a companion does the whole pass and gives you back the batch, with nothing changed until you say so.
What it can do is exactly what Tally exposes to an account you authorise and nothing beyond it: 3 operations, 3 reads and no writes. In practice that means it can get responses, get forms and get form fields, and work across the forms, form fields and responses.
The Tally API stops at Tally. A companion does not. The same run opens the customer's website, the supplier portal, the internal tool somebody built in 2019, because it is working the browser you are already signed into rather than calling in from outside it.
Which Tally forms does a companion see?
All 3 operations read.
Your account, not a guess at it: a companion can get responses, get forms and get form fields, and the full list below is the whole list, with nothing inferred from Tally's documentation.
The forms are what most of this inventory is about, alongside the form fields. A companion can hold all 3 of these operations and forty open tabs in the same pass, which is how an afternoon of Tally admin becomes a queue you review.
- Get Responses
- Get Forms
- Get Form Fields
It can get responses. Can it act on what it finds?
Through the screens you already use.
Tally exposes no write operation to a connected account, so a companion drives Tally in the session you are already signed into instead, filling the same forms you would to move a form, and anything consequential stops for an approval card before it happens.
That is the ordinary case rather than the exception. Most of what a form in Tally touches has no API pointed at it, and a companion is useful precisely because it does not need one.
What does the recurring forms pass look like?
Yes.
Saved as a routine, the Tally forms pass runs at the hour you pick: the Monday sweep, the overnight refresh, the Friday check. Keep Awake holds the machine awake for the length of a run, so a scheduled pass finishes with the lid closed.
The research and analysis playbook catalogues the other recurring shapes of the responses, the Tally forms sweep among them, and finished runs are published at real runs.
