    Buen dia.


    Quiero ver si me pueden ayudar a que widget puedo incluir en mi formulario que me permita subir un archivo y ese archivo ser nombrado con el nombre de un dato capturado en el mismo formulario.

    Hi pt.finanzas,

    Thanks for reaching out to us for help. Unfortunately, our Spanish Support agents are busy helping other Jotform users at the moment. I'll try to help you in English using Google Translate, but you can reply in whichever language you feel comfortable using. Or, if you'd rather have support in Spanish, let us know and we can have them do that. But, keep in mind that you'd have to wait until they're available again. 

    With that said, can you explain a bit more about what you're trying to do? To my understanding, you would like an upload field, where the file name is specified based on the data captured from the same form, right? If so, I'm afraid that's not possible. When using an upload field or any widgets that allows uploading of file, it will always capture the file name of the actual file before it gets uploaded.

    We've gone ahead and escalated your request to our developers, but when or if it's developed depends on their workload, how viable it is, and how many other users also request it. If there are any updates, we’ll circle back to this thread and let you know.

    Thanks for your patience and understanding, we appreciate it.
