        user: "John Smith",
      },
      {
        isLink: true,
        permissions: "Read Only",
        user: "External link",
      },
    ],
  })
}

const docEditor = new DocsAPI.DocEditor("placeholder", {
  events: {
    onRequestSharingSettings,
  },
})

onRequestStartFilling

The function called when the user is trying to start filling out the ready forms by clicking the Start filling button in the pdf editing mode. If the event is not declared, this button will not be displayed.

When the user clicks the Start filling button, the startFilling method is called to lock the pdf editing (only pdf viewing becomes available).

Example:

function onRequestStartFilling() {
  docEditor.startFilling()
}

const docEditor = new DocsAPI.DocEditor("placeholder", {
  events: {
    onRequestStartFilling,
  },
})

onRequestUsers

The function called when the user can select other users to mention in the comments, grant the access rights to edit the specific sheet ranges, or set the user avatars.

Starting from version 7.4, the operation type can be specified in the data.c parameter. It can take two values - mention or protect. Prior to version 7.4, only the mention operation was available with this event.

Starting from version 8.0, the info operation type is added to set the avatars for the users with the ids specified in the data.id parameter.

To set a list of users, you must call the setUsers method which can take different lists of users depending on the specified operation type. The onRequestUsers event is called once for each c type when the corresponding operation is performed. If the setUsers is called with an empty list, then the onRequestUsers event will fire again.

Example:

function onRequestUsers(event) {
  const c = event.data.c
  const id = event.data.id

  docEditor.setUsers({
    c: event.data.c,
    users: [
      {
        email: "john@example.com",
        id: "78e1e841",
        image: "https://example.com/url-to-user-avatar1.png",
        name: "John Smith",
      },
      {
        email: "kate@example.com",
        id: "F89d8069ba2b",
        image: "https://example.com/url-to-user-avatar2.png",
        name: "Kate Cage",
      },
    ],
  })
}

const docEditor = new DocsAPI.DocEditor("placeholder", {
  events: {
    onRequestUsers,
  },
})

onSubmit

The function called when the force saving request of the 3 forcesavetype is successfully performed, i.e. when the Complete & Submit button is clicked and the form is submitted.

Example:

function onSubmit(event) {
  console.log("The form was submitted.")
}

const docEditor = new DocsAPI.DocEditor("placeholder", {
  events: {
    onSubmit,
  },
})

onWarning

The function called when a warning occurs. The warning message is sent in the data parameter. A list of error codes can be found here.

Example:

function onWarning(event) {
  console.log(`ONLYOFFICE Document Editor reports a warning: code ${event.data.warningCode}, description ${event.data.warningDescription}`)
}

const docEditor = new DocsAPI.DocEditor("placeholder", {
  events: {
    onWarning,
  },
})
