It successfully displays 'Created by' but yet not showing who created the leave request for some reason. How do i need to connect 'Created by' field from my Form with Sharepoint list?

Hi @Hitogami ,

 

Judging by your screenshots, this may not be the reason.

Did you create the "Created By" manually? Could you find another column like "Created By" column in hide columns?

Please check that you are using the manually added column instead of the SP's own 'Created By' column. Usually, this column is automatically populated when the item is created and is not editable, you can see that our edit column interface is different, your interface is similar to the manually created column. Your Form may display the 'Created By' column, but your list displays a manually created column.

 

I am not familiar with Share Point and I'd love to hear from others here.

 

Best regards,

Rimmon

Hi @Hitogami ,

 

Could you please show more details? What does "connect 'Created by' field from my Form with Sharepoint list" mean?

 

Best regards,

How am i supposed to fix my application to force it to filling field 'Created by' as well?

Hi @Hitogami ,

 

If you are using original 'Created By' column of SP list, I recommend you go to list setting and check the "Show field" of 'Created By' column because some field will show blank in SharePoint.

I recommend you select Name.
