    Hi ComercialEnviWorld,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. Our Spanish Support agents are busy helping other Jotform users right now, so I'll try to help you in English using Google Translate, but you can reply in whichever language you feel comfortable using. Or, if you'd rather have support in Spanish, let us know and we can have them do that. But, it might take a while until they're available again.

    Now, coming back to your question, did you mean Unique ID widget? If yes, it's easy to use. Let me show you how:

    1. In the Form Builder, click the Add Form Elements in the upper-left corner.

    2. Go to the Widgets tab.

    3. Search and click Unique ID. You can also drag and drop it to the form to add.

    4. Select the widget, and click on the gear icon on the right side to set your configurations accordingly:

    • Prefix — Add a string in front of the IDs.
    • Unique ID Generation Method — Sequential Values is the only option.
    • Current Index — You can define the index to start at any number. However, changing this value to lower than the current index in your form submissions may result in duplicate IDs.
    • Number of Digits — Set your IDs to a fixed number by prepending zeroes before the IDs.

    If that’s not exactly what you’re looking for, can you explain a bit more, so I can help you better? It would help us to understand what’s happening if you could take a screenshot and send it to us. We have a guide here explaining how to do that.

    Once we hear back from you, we'll be able to move forward with a solution.
