Hi All
I want to create a leave request from and would like to pull back data on the form such as holidays left and their employee ID. I have set the form to be an authenticated form and there are fields that are read only which shows the current logged in users name etc.
Is there a way I can pull back data from a SPO list from those name fields (or maybe an email field). I cant have a drop down list of employee names as then anyone can find anyone else holiday entitlements etc.

HI
If I understand correctly, you can use what’s called External Data which is based on a data source.
Create a new data source that points to your list with the info you need, then create a new data source variable (via external data on the form) which uses this data source, then in the condition pass in the value that will return your required item (e.g. where email = ‘users email’). Then use a label and in the text field point to the variable of the field in your external data object.
