In Webflow, it is not possible to directly send an associated `user_id` in a form submission. However, you can achieve this using JavaScript or other methods. Here's a recommended approach:
1. Identify the logged-in user: If you are using Webflow Membership or an external authentication system, you'll need to identify the logged-in user and retrieve their `user_id`.
2. Store the `user_id` in a session or local storage: Once you have the `user_id`, you can store it in a session or local storage using JavaScript. This way, you can access the `user_id` across multiple pages.
3. Attach the `user_id` to the file upload form: When the user uploads a file, you can append the `user_id` to the form data either as a hidden input field, a query parameter, or as part of the form action URL.
- Hidden input field: Add a hidden input field to the file upload form and set its value to the `user_id` stored in the session or local storage. For example:
```html
```
You can set the value using JavaScript like this:
```javascript
document.getElementById('user_id').value = getUserIdFromStorage();
```
- Query parameter: If your form action URL accepts query parameters, you can append the `user_id` as a query parameter. For example:
```html
