How to customize the New Request name from the default running number

Miya Lai

How to customize the new Request Name while creating new request instead of the a group of number then follows by the name of the request? Like this - 159310200: Request Form. We wish not to see the running numbers but only our title of the Request or customized Request Name for every new Request. It is quite troublesome and time consuming if we have to change the title for all the requests after it created. Or is there any other way for the title to capture something that we wrote in the Request?Thanks.

Those numbers\u00a0in the url are automatically assigned and used to make sure that each Request form is unique. Because of that, you can't edit the urls to make them custom.\u00a0"}" data-sheets-userformat="{"2":769,"3":[null,0],"11":4,"12":0}">Hi Miya, welcome to the forums Those numbers in the url are automatically assigned and used to make sure that each Request form url is unique. Because of that, you can't edit the ID out of the url. I'm not sure if you're mapping form responses to task title's right now, but if you're not, that could be a good thing to try.

1. Add a question to a Request form.
2. Click the option to the left of where it says "Required" and select "Title". 

That way, any response added in that field is used for the task's title. 

Let me know if that helps!
