Is it possible using Contour to return a unique reference to the user once they've submitted the form, return it to them in an email and also log it in the database for that record?
If so is this built in or would it require some customisation using the API?
It take it thats a sequential unique ID from the DB? Is it relatively straight forward to get that once the form has been submitted and display it to the user or email it?
I suppose ideally I'd want to save a random ID into the DB on each save and display that to the user so its not sequential
Well it's a guid so not sequential, sure it should be pretty straigh forward to display it to the user, when you choose to send the user to a certain page after submitting the form (can be done on form settings) contour will post the record id to that page...
Contour Unique Reference
Hi

Well each record that is submitted as a unique id, is that sufficient?
Hi Tim,
Thanks for the reply.
