I have a data table set up with two columns:

  • Column 1: Name
  • Column 2: Email Address

The intent is for the user to select a name in the start form, which auto-populates the email in another action within the same form. The selected information can then be used in multiple forms throughout the workflow.  However, I am only able to make the employee email visible with a label action.  I am unable to use the information within the label action in subsequent forms within the workflow.  

Can the selected table information be used as a variable within a text-short action?

Is there a way to use the table information selected in a start form in multiple forms within a workflow?

See the example workflow below, which hopefully explains my situation.

I have identified my issue.  Please disregard this questions. 

Great to know you’ve resolved this Adrian.  Just in case anyone was wondering how to do it, you would look up the email address to a form variable.  That form variable can then be used as a display item inside a label in the form or you could write a rule to put it into a field.  The form variable will also be available for subsequent workflow actions and forms.
