Hi Maddy, The Owner identity refers to the Identity set in the owned_by_id property of the Document. Like the Creator identity, the Owner is a special system identity that allows for more dynamic permissions without needing to write any additional code. The primary difference between the owned_by_id and created_by_id properties is that the created_by_id property is automatically set by Innovator when an item is created and cannot be changed. The owned_by_id property on the other hand can be freely updated by users. You can set the Owner in the field labeled Assigned Creator on the Document form. Chris

    Hi Chris, How can I set owned_by_id to the current user with a form event?  I'm having trouble finding a code example to call the current logged on user into the Assigned Creator form property (owned_by_id).
