Forms - Submission and Instance IDs from the Thank You page

I would like to be able to customize the Thank You page in Forms 9.2 with a link containing the instance and submission IDs from the form that was just submitted. The link will direct to an external website that will use the Forms API to retrieve the submission data using the instance and submissions IDs. I don't see these two tokens available in the token list for the thank you message or a redirect URL. Are these tokens available for use on the Thank You page? If not, could this be a feature request for 9.3?

I believe the problem with that ID is that the submission ID is not created until the form is actually submitted. There would probably have to be a small wait period added to the software in order for that submission id to be created first so it could present back to the Thank You page.

What is the purpose of taking them to a link that shows what they just submitted?

They are not just displayed the information they just submitted. That information is processed by another web application into the final result. This processing includes retrieving the Forms submission data and generating a formatted report using pieces of that information.

Hi there,

The token support is limited for the Start Form. You can see the available list through the token picker. Instance ID and Submission ID is not available for use on Thank you page because user's submission is still under processing when they see the Thank You page.
