[color=rgb(34, 34, 34)][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]The URL of the external form step contains a flow tracking id and step tracking id that can be used by the step Get form data to retrieve the data to be shown in the form without displaying it in the URL.[/font][/color]

[/font][/color]
[color=rgb(34, 34, 34)][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif] If we click View Integration Details in the upper-right-hand corner of the External Form steps properties, we will see an example of whats sent by the External Form URL which includes the flow tracking id and step tracking id.

[color=rgb(34, 34, 34)][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Under Interaction using APIs there is a step available in ExternalFormFormService called GetFormData that can be run via POST to fetch the data to be displayed on your external form based on the provided flow tracking id and step tracking id.

[/font][/color]
[color=rgb(34, 34, 34)][font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]The POST call would need to be triggered via some javascript in your external form.[/font][/color]
