Feature Request: Field Rule Based on Whether an Initiator is Authenticated

Forms Ideas Version 9
Updated May 1, 2014
asked on May 1, 2014

We have some forms that are public that a public user can fill out or an authenticated user can fill out. If the user is not authenticated we need to show a signature field for them to use. If the user is authenticated we do not need to show the signature field since they have already authenticated. In order to do this in Field Rules we would need the ability to set a Rule based on who the initiator is and if they are authenticated.

Hey Blake,

 

Here's a neat little idea that may allow you to do what you're looking for:

 

Create a single line field on your form, make it read only, and set the default value to "Current User".  Now when you have an authenticated user, that field will be populated.  When the user is not authenticated, the field will be blank.  Now you can create field rules based on whether the aforementioned field is populated.  Since it's read only, you don't have to worry about unauthenticated users accidentally adding information to it.

 

Hopefully this helps you out!  Let me know if you have any questions!
