Create a Record ID for each entry Confiforms

Is it possible to create a record id for each entry into confiforms starting with the year and and a number after it like

- 2025001

- 2025002

etc...

Doesn't have to be 001 it could be 1, 01 0001, etc.

Something like this https://wiki.vertuna.com/display/CONFIFORMS/Using+generate+next+number+IFTTT+rule+to+have+sequence+numbers+per+day

Or even simpler by utilizing the recordId field that each record has and is assigned and managed by ConfiForms

Is there a way to edit the metadata ID that is created when a user makes an entry on a form? For example, if a user completes a form and uploads attachments, can the id created be updated using a rule to include information from the form? so this id would go from:

storage_41c36a69-07e8-42e6-9ace-2054b7b7badf

to progamename_date_user_storage_41c36a69-07e8-42e6-9ace-2054b7b7badf

I would also like the secure page that gets created from the entry to be automatically moved under an existing subpage.

You can move pages with ConfiForms, https://wiki.vertuna.com/display/CONFIFORMS/Configuring+ConfiForms+IFTTT+actions+and+rules#ConfiguringConfiFormsIFTTTactionsandrules-MovePage

And you can probably move the automatically created pages for secure storage, as their titles are predictable (storage_ followed by UUID of the record), so you can have a parameter value figured out for the "Move page" action

spaceKey:storage_[entry.id]

(just need to change the space key)

I am getting an error. See screenshots of what I have entered and the error I get when I submit the form. The parent page is the space ID and the page name.
