User name on first login

AppSheet AppSheet Q&A
,

Hi.

First app using AppSheet. Since USERNAME() is returning blank from some authentication providers, I need to ask for the user name from the user.

I created a table with the fields [Email] and [Name].

The Email is automatically populated so I present the user with one blank required field for the Name.

Since the record is not yet created, the user is able to press Cancel and leave the field blank. I need the user to fill in the Name before exiting the form.

How can I achieve this, please?

Unfortunately you can’t force to fill the form if the user press cancel. The user can cancel the process many different ways like force closing the app etc. That’s why AppSheet doesn’t have that option, Im afraid.

Will hiding the Cancel button through Localisation help? This way, there is no button to press.
