With ConfiForms record you always have access to metadata fields such as
| ConfiTemplates Smart Template | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||||
| Info |
|---|
There is a similar demo on tracking last updated time together with a last updater: Tracking user and last updated time |
Accessing this fields is the same as accessing the fields you define
For example, consider a simple form like this:
| ConfiForms Form Definition | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
We can build a simple CardView over it's data and to show a createdBy field in addition to defined "mytextfield"
| ConfiForms CardView | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
| Info |
|---|

We will use the same form, add a hidden field to store the last updater and update this field with IFTTT on record create and record update
Modifying the CardView like this:
