I just came across this tip from @MaximeBaker available under _Community Resources_: > [@Glide Form Container + Row Owners Trick!](https://community.glideapps.com/t/glide-form-container-row-owners-trick/82944): > > rocket Did you know? Glide Form Container + Row Owners Trick! When you’re using a Form Container to add data into a specific table, here’s a neat trick: right_arrow Add a text column to your table and set it as a Row Owner. right_arrow Don’t include that column in the form. right_arrow When the user submits the form, Glide will automatically populate that column with their email address. No need to manually set the user’s email in the form fields, it’s handled for you! Perfect for … I haven’t tried it myself, but it’s clearly the simplest way to fill a Row Owner column as long as the prerequisites are met (e.g.: using the email address as the value to store in the column). * * * > [@Darren\_Murphy](#): > > I would advise against option 2 > [@Darren\_Murphy](#): > > option 1.
