    Like Trent, we also wish to capture mobile assignee email address and/or name automatically instead of them having to fill it out manually in an extra question.We want to use the fields in the submissions email and PDF and to create separate Google Drive folders when they upload files. So please make it into a default jotform field similar to your default webapp fields such as {submission ID} or {Form Title}?

    - To clarify, do you like to get the email address of the assignee who opened the form?

    We want to use the fields in the submissions email and PDF and to create separate Google Drive folders when they upload files.

    - When they upload files, it automatically creates a folder for each submission on your google drive. Could you please explain your question in details?

    Yes exactly.

    It's connected to the previous question. I want to be able to use a field like {Assignee Name} or {Assignee Email} when I configure the Google Drive integration. Now we can already use fields {Submission ID} or {Time} for the name of the subfolder that Jotform will create in Google Drive for each submission. If we have a field {Assignee Name} then we can quickly see which subfolder is from which assignee. Now there are a lot of extra steps to find out which assignee sent those files.

    Thanks and let me know if you have more questions?

    Hi! Looks like we do not yet have an option to capture assignee emails when form is submitted. I am adding your request to our system and once we get such option we will inform you right away.

    Thank you for the suggestion!
