    Hi cc00,

    Unfortunately, it is not possible to identify the submitter of the new form without adding their name. As a workaround, you can prefill the name field on the new form using URL Parameters. You can then appy a condition that if this product was selected they will be redirected to the new form. Let me show you how:

    1. First, you need to create a URL Parameter to prefill your new form. You can use the URL parameter below, just edit the Form ID.

    https://form.jotform.com/YourNewFormID?name[first]={name:first}&name[last]={name:last}

    2. In Form Builder, click on Settings on the orange navigation bar on top of the page.

    3. Click on Conditions on the left side panel, then click Add Condition.

    4. Select Change Thank You Page. How to identify which form this new form was the additional submission of without adding their name again? Image 1 Screenshot 40

    5. Copy the Condition below then click Save.
