Quest List Form – You can save a form without filling out all required fields
In a Quest List Form you can save a form without filling out all required fields. For example, If you create a new contact, default values in the required field are being perceived as filled out. In addition, if a required field is left blank, the form still allows the user to save without entering the data.

- <CurrentUserID /> – This element will be replaced with the ID of the current user. For example: 1
- <CurrentUserEmail /> – This element will be replaced with the email address of the current user. For example: johnsmith@domain.com
