Collecting user information on form submission

Baserow Help

I’m hopeful this question isn’t covered in another thread…

I’m wondering if it’s possible to gather user information of logged in users when submitting data via a form. The scenario would be that a logged in user is sent a form. Upon submission, a field in the table would have a record of the user ID of the person who submitted data. In Django, this would be akin to request.user.username.

Maybe this is already possible and I just missed it?

We plan to add “created by” and “modified by” information to rows when users manipulate rows which is currently not tracked. Once this is done, it makes sense to make the forms compatible.

There is no specific date/plan for adding this feature, although we might decide to add it when working on access control in the following release.
