Description

Nextcloud (please complete the following information):

  • Nextcloud-Version: 33.0.2
  • Forms-Version: 5.2.6

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
There are times when we need to collect participants' contact information for various reasons. For example, to manage pre-order deliveries or other tasks. This information can then be reused for follow-ups and in other Nextcloud applications.

Describe the solution you'd like
It would be helpful to include contact information via a checkbox that the user can select in the form (e.g., “I consent to the use of the contact information stored in my account”). From that point on, detailed account information would be included when extracting results, for example.

Describe alternatives you've considered
I have to ask users to fill out all their information on every form each time.

Research direction

Start by tracing how Nextcloud Forms presents question options and how extracted results are assembled; the issue names no files or tests. Define the consent behavior and account-data boundary before implementation. Done means a participant can opt in to reuse contact information and consented details are available in extracted results for follow-up use.
