Rendering a v2 form from Preside formbuilder

Question

I'm stuck in rendering a v2 form that I created using Preside formbuilder.

so far I have:

args.newsletter = formbuilderService.getForm("[id]");
args.rendered = formbuilderService.renderForm(
            formId = args.newsletter.id,
            layout = "default",
            validationResult = "");

but all I get from args.rendered is:

<div class="formbuilder-form form form-horizontal"> <div class="alert alert-success"></div> </div>

But I want to render the whole form, like if I would add it by using a widget.

FormbuilderService.renderForm expects the configuration argument to contain data from the form builder widget in order to render the form correctly.

You can use the renderWidget helper to render the form

args.newsletter = formbuilderService.getForm( "[id]" );
args.rendered   = renderWidget(
      widgetId = "formbuilderForm"
    , config   = {
          form       = args.newsletter
        , layout     = "default"
        , instanceid = ""
    }
);
