Hi...as the post below explains I need the "item_id" to pre fill a referenced item. How to obtain "item_id" via calculation??

Thanks.

A simple way to get the item_id:
Add a text field and a Podio flow: When item created, update this item in text field with item_id:
You can make the field "Always hidden" so nobody can change it and pull the item_id into the calc field
For existing items you can use Globiflow to add the item_id to the text field.Rainer

Hi Jerome,
sure, would be nice to have direct access to the item_id in the calc fields. But at the moment we've no access to it. Cause I need the item_id for several use cases I use my workarounds. But why do you think it's expensive and painful? For all future items Podio flows do the job. Zero costs. For existiing items it costs Globiflow actions, right. But cause most of my Podio customers (I'm a Podio Partner) have Premium licence or a Plus and a higher GF account, it's no problem to add the item_id for existing items in the apps where you really need them.
