Auto Fill some form fields from previous form submission
Is there a way to auto-fill some fields in a form from the previous form submission? We use a form to capture actions by Project and Project Manager and would like for the Project and Project Manager information to be captured from the previous form submission, so that only the actions and due dates have to be entered for subsequent submissions.

Hi @tariq.shaikh@signspecialists.com
I hope you're well and safe!
Unfortunately, it's not possible at the moment, but it's an excellent idea!
Please submit an Enhancement Request when you have a moment
Here's a possible workaround or workarounds
- I developed a solution using two forms (or the same form by using conditional logic) that can be used to submit the main information and then the other information on a new row for each submission after the first.
Would that work/help?
I hope that helps!
Be safe and have a fantastic weekend!

Hi Andrée Starå - Thanks for your response. Is it possible for you to share your solution of using 2 forms?
Thanks,

How's it going? Do you happen to still have this example on file? I would love to get a workaround for this made and can't wrap my head around any solutions.
Thank you so much!
