Form data in email fileds?

jj135 26 Jun, 2017
Hi! We are starting to use CF6. In CF5 we could fill out a form field name (for example 'email') in the 'reply to' field in the email action so the filled out email is used here. When we try to do this in CF6 the email is not send.

Is this a bug or is this not possible in CF6 (yet)? Or do we need to put the field in some kind of different formatting?

I think we found it:

{data:email}

That seems to work!

Hi jj35,

If you check the Instructions tab in the Forms Manager there is a list of example values that can be helpful to check (though it's not always clear exactly what to use where after CFv5).
{data:PARAMETER_NAME}
Get a url parameter or a form input value.
