Hey @LWest0

so whenever a form is completed and submited

all the properties in the form are being pulled to the record/object.

If you go to the Custom Object record should be able to see the properties complete

and if you look at the timeline of activites you should see the completed form as part of the history.

Here is an example:

Completing the form 'd only create a new record for the custom object. If you are trying to update an existing record you 'd need to use the Record ID or any unique identifier of the Custom object. But these are not usually possible to use visible in the form, just as hidden fields and then using a custom coded action to update the record.

Let me know is this what you where looking for or if I misundertood something.
