- Created by - The user who created the item
- Modified by - The user who last modified the item
- Created at - The time the item was created as a draft
- Modified at - The time the form was last modified
- Flow name - The name of the flow
- Current step - The step the item is in
- Currently assigned to - The user currently assigned to the step; this field will be empty if the workflow is completed
