Can I use a field in my form to name my submission?

Yes, you can! By doing this, the field entry will show up as the name rather than the default Submission ID. Using a field entry as your Submission's name makes it much easier to keep track of anything you are collecting data on.

Note: This functionality is only available on short text, date, number, calculation, summary, time, barcode, and multiple choice fields.

6. Once you have selected the fields you wish to use as the Submission name, Publish your form.
