Working with form submission IDs
Link submissions back to Fillout by referencing its Submission ID on the integrations page. Search for a particular submission on the results page.
A unique Submission ID is generated whenever someone begins to complete your form. Submission ID’s are randomly generated, like 6bcedd3a-fe26-4bcb-9ce9-d3850e38d42c.
Send the submission ID to your integrations
You might want to send the Fillout Submission ID to your integrations, like Airtable or Notion, so you can easily look up a submission on the Fillout results page later on.
1. Select your integration
First, navigate to Integrations located on the top menu, and choose the app or service you would like to use.
2. Map Submission ID on your Fillout form
Under Mappings, click
+ Add new
. Then, choose what field you want to save the Submission ID to and select Submission ID
from the dropdown on the right-hand side. ![notion image](/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.notion.so%2Fimage%2Fhttps%253A%252F%252Fprod-files-secure.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com%252F2a7ed980-5add-4b51-82ab-889415f57134%252F26027c64-9fa9-46b7-a538-33094bf3cea1%252FScreen_Shot_2023-09-14_at_11.23.52_AM.png%3Ftable%3Dblock%26id%3Dc45be4c4-6006-4187-b74b-56da7df7278f%26cache%3Dv2&w=3840&q=75)
In this example, we’re going to save the Submission ID to a field called Fillout Submission ID in our Airtable base.
Note: If you’re using Zapier or Make, you’ll also see the option to reference the Submission ID.
