I am sure that I am just missing this setting somewhere but can’t find it for the life of me.
I have a form that is set-up for our employees with a few basic questions. One of the fields I have added is a “Person” field that I want to show the person that has completed and submitted the form. I want this person to be the same as the logged in user. What I am seeing on the form is when going to select a person, I see a drop down of all users. I am not sure if this is because I am admin or if its for everyone.
The short is when a user submits the form, I want that user to automatically be assigned that. This will eliminate a field for me for Employee Name and then as a person as well. I hope I am explaining this scenario properly.
Remove that question from the form. Either use the creation log column OR have a people column on the board and set up an automation that when item is created assign the creator as that person.
Exactly what Desiree said—but note that this only works if you grant all form submitters some degree of access to the form’s board. If it’s a private board the form submitters don’t have any access to, the automation Desiree suggested will just add the person who created the form every time.
There are lots of permissions configuration options and workarounds to mitigate that limitation which I won’t get into here; I just wanted to make sure you were aware!
