Submission Metadata

Submission Metadata captures information automatically at a selected point in the entry process. In this example, Formyoula records whether the device is online or offline when the entry starts—no user input is required.

Add Submission Metadata

  1. Open the form in the Form Builder and add a Submission Metadata field.
