"Advanced" tab not showing for Umbraco Forms even after setting EnableAdvancedValidationRules to 'true'

Umbraco version 13.5.2

Current installed version of Umbraco Forms: 13.1.2

Following these two articles:

I added the “EnableAdvancedValidationRules”: true value to my appsettings.json file for my site. This was done for my dev site locally and for my dev site being run from the server (i.e. appsettings.json for both sites edited to add the EnableAdvancedValidationRules option). However, even after rebuilding my local dev site and restarting the server dev site and application pool, I still cannot see the “Advanced” tab for Forms. I have verified that I have the correct Admin permissions for Forms, as shown here:

The image shows a form security panel for Chris Dennett, with toggles enabled for managing forms, viewing entries, editing entries, managing workflows, managing data sources, and managing prevalue sources. (Captioned by AI)

Yet the “Advanced” tab does not show like in the article above. My options still look like this after adding the EnableAdvancedValidationRules: true option:

A screen capture shows the navigation bar of a website with the title "Big Test Form" and three icons to the right labeled "Design," "Settings," and "Info." (Captioned by AI)

Searching online only gives me info on HOW TO ADD the Advanced Tab, which I have followed the above instructions for. I can’t find anything about what to do if, after adding the options, the tab still doesn’t show. Can anyone please help me?

Hey @DennettCTUIR ,

Umbraco’s documentation might be helpful in this case:
https://docs.umbraco.com/umbraco-forms/13.latest/editor/creating-a-form/form-advanced.

It includes information like how the advanced options for forms are only available when “configured to display” https://docs.umbraco.com/umbraco-forms/13.latest/developer/configuration#enableadvancedvalidationrules.

Have you had a chance to follow this?

Hey, so I appreciate the reply, but you literally linked the same two articles I included in my original post. So yes, I followed those instructions, but I still don’t see the “Advanced” tab. Thanks for taking the time to respond though.

@DennettCTUIR,

Would you be able to share the appsettings.json file where this has been configured? That would help take a closer look.
