formio: populating odoo model fields in a form (list field)

[trojantomasz]

I can imagine this question was raised many times before. I have read every and all the answers and hints about it but still I am not able to achieve it. In Odoo 15 Community, I have installed and working forms (form.io) addon, with sales, crm extensions.
How correctly define a list field in a form to have it list data from the odoo database model field (like the simpliest name field from res.partner model)? I was following your guide in this issue:#11 but it is not working for me. I was following all the links and hints from this issue. No luck. I suppose, there are some breaking changes in Odoo 15 but I cannot find any information regarding this. Simply, it is not working. Can you give me any guidance on this?

@trojantomasz The feature has been moved to the Components API module:

@trojantomasz All clear now?
Please can you close the issue.

[trojantomasz]

@bobslee Yes, thank you! Case closed.

Thank you for explanation. It is not available anywhere, so I suppose many people will look for the answer. The description is somehow misleading as it clearly states, that there is a possibility to use Odoo database fields in forms without mentioning the required, non-free addon.

@trojantomasz Thanks for the heads up.
I have plans to improve the app's page, documentation. Actually I will launch a website with more info and practices and probably some screen recordings.

@bobslee You welcome :) Actually, my company is interested in this functionality but there is practically no information on how does it work (I mean using odoo database's fields content in forms). Is there any documentation or examples somewhere? Or is there a way to test how it works? I am not sure if our python programming skills will be enough to use the paid addon so I cannot recommend it in the moment for my boss without making some 'proof of concept'. In the online demo I have found literally no example with working functionality of this.
