Getting UPN/username for user submitting public form in SharePoint using Plumsail Form webpart

Forms SharePoint Online
1

Hi,

I'm using a public web form to trigger a flow to create a Plumsail helpdesk ticket, which sits on a SharePoint page via the Plumsail forms webpart.
I'm not sure how to get the UPN/username of the user submitting the form.
I've created a field "Requester" which is read-only and will use JS to populate this with the UPN / or if there is a smarter way to do this, I'm all ears!

Thanks!

Hello @atomicharri,

To set the field with the current user email in SharePoint you can use the below code:

fd.rendered(function() {
    fd.field('TextBox0').value = _spPageContextInfo.userLoginName;
});

Thanks! That worked!
I'm also trying to get the field data without having the field in the form (I'm using
If I don't add the field into the form, fd.field('abcd') object doesn't exist. How can I get the value of abcd without showing the field?

@atomicharri Here's one way to do that!
You need to add the field to the form and set the Style in the Parent Grid to

display: none;

This way the data can be accessed and it won't be shown.
