I need to add a random number to be sent to a database to identify the unique submission. How can I generate a random number?

Hi @PortP Thanks for stopping by the community! When a respondent submits an answer to the form, it creates a Response ID that is unique to each submission. Would that work for you? You can find this unique string when exporting the results. 

I made a video below to walk you through where to find the Response ID. :grinning:
