Hi Adriano

Where do you need to record this ?

You can use {user:id} and {date:} in either the Save Data action ( in the Modify Data Source behavior) or the Email action Body to get those values.

You do not need to have this in a hidden field first

No problem, you can do it the way I recommended and it will get saved, but you do not need them in "hidden fields"
