UI Parameter with Autofill Input source

[Derek C]

Hi all,

I have a UI Parameter assigned to a create new function that needs to set a reference field to the user table on a record. The field should auto populate the field on the mobile form to the logged in user. However, whenever I set the "input source" to "autofill" and set the "input type" to "user" (per this doc https://docs.servicenow.com/bundle/orlando-mobile/page/administer/tablet-mobile-ui/task/sg-assign-pa...) the field is no longer appearing on the form. If I set the "input source" to "user input" and the "input source" to "SearchList" it works fine. I can even set the default value to javascript:gs.getUserID(); and it will populate the value correctly. 

I'd prefer to use the autofill functionality if possible, does anyone have any suggestions on what may be happening or how to fix it?

Thanks!

@Mike Patel @Derek Culbertson _ I'm trying to d the same thing here, as mentioned by you guys, input type - Autofill doesn't display the field. So, wanted to know how to go about using default value and making it ready only?

Looking for inputs on this.

Thanks,
