record_create.py

from invenio_records.api import Record

data = {
    "$schema": "http://my-site.org/schemas/records/record-v1.0.0.json",
    "formats": [
        {'width': 10, 'height': 5},
        {'width': 12, 'height': 5},
        {'width': 13, 'height': 5},
        {'width': 20, 'height': 5},
    ]
}

rec = Record.create(data)
# if not valid you get ValidationException

this solved it:

         {% for subformfield in form.format %} 
                       {{ subformfield.form.height.label }}:{{ subformfield.form.height(size=6)}} cm,
                      {{ subformfield.form.width.label }}:{{ subformfield.form.width(size=6) }} cm,
                      {{ subformfield.form.thickness.label }}:{{subformfield.form.thickness(size=6) }} cm
          		{{ subformfield.form.hidden_tag() }}
         {% endfor %}

NB: form.hidden_tag() creates automatically a csrf_token! (how am I supposed to know.. :D).
and since the ID of the hidden field is also important, I had to create it inside the loop.

this way:

• hidden field is created
• it has the correct ID (when adding another set of fields it will surely increase)
• and it has a csrf_token value

my output now:

<label for="format-0-height">height</label>:<input id="format-0-height" name="format-0-height" size="6" type="text" value=""> cm,
<label for="format-0-width">width</label>:<input id="format-0-width" name="format-0-width" size="6" type="text" value=""> cm,
<label for="format-0-thickness">thickness</label>:<input id="format-0-thickness" name="format-0-thickness" size="6" type="text" value=""> cm
<input id="format-0-csrf_token" name="format-0-csrf_token" type="hidden"
