This is the documentation for ConfiForms Server/Data Center app
However, this might also work for ConfiForms cloud and in most cases it does. But please see this page to understand the differences between server and cloud versions of the ConfiForms app.
ConfiForms has a lot of various field types to help you with building your data forms. And it has very sophisticated system to retrieve the values stored, including accessing rich objects such as Page, User and other referenced Records when used together with "smart fields"
Here is the table showing you how to reference field values for different field types. Our field name is: "myfield"
