Forms: Contact List Default Setting Current User

When adding a contact list field to a form. I have noticed the need for an option of current user as a default setting. Some forms are repetitive and require an email often times that of the user filling out the form. This would greatly enhance the form experience and optimize user time.

    Hi@Lou Cav

    If the user filling out the Form has a Smartsheet account, you can automatically capture this information by doing two things:

    This way each row will be associated with the email address of the person who filled in the Form!

    Cheers,

    Genevieve
