What are built-in functions?

Built-in functions are default variables available to be used throughout your forms. They can capture the username of the person filling out the form, the first and last name of the user, their email address, OS type and more.

How do I capture the Table Name of the Parent form?

PLEASE NOTE: Added in the Android 8.9 release. This will only populate if the element is in the subform or below.

To capture the Table Name of the Parent form, please follow the instructions below.

STEP 1. Inside your form (ideally a Subform attached to a Parent), add a Read-Only element. 

STEP 2. On the right-hand side, scroll down to the Smart Control section. In the Dynamic Value field, place the following:

iformbuilder.parentFormName

PLEASE NOTE: You must capitalize the "F" and "N" in parentFormName in order for the function to work properly.

STEP 3. Save your form.

STEP 4. Test it using your device or Webforms.
