Passing Data from One Field to Another after Form Submit

Hi all,

Is it possible to collect data using one field (used on form) and then after a certain period of time have that information be transferred over to another field and then also have that same info cleared on initial field where it was collected (null?)? Is this process called appending data to a field? I'm attaching product docs article that might relate: Append Data to a Field - Marketo Docs - Product Docs

What would the flow-steps look like in smart campaign?

Thanks,

Tom

I would create a smart campaign that was triggered on the field being filled out by the form.  You could refine the trigger by value as well.

Then wait for whatever time frame

then use a data value change for field 2 and set the value using a token from field 1

Create a second data value change step and change field 1 to null

Thanks Jamie.

- Should I add a wait step between data value change flow steps?

- Also, do you know how many characters a text area-type field can store?

it will depend on the CRM. Text Area usually 32000 characters.
