In this demo we copy the created and createdBy into other readonly fields we have on our form

2 Readonly fields to hold the values from metadata fields, fields are hidden when a user creates an entry with ConfiForms Field Definition Rule
ConfiForms IFTTT macro is used on "created" event to copy the values from metadata fields "created" and createdBy into our read-only fields
