I have an automation set up that when a new client appointment is made a task is created and a form is automatically emailed out to the prospective client.

How can I make the form response link back to the specific task?

At the moment it is creating a new task, but this basically means we are creating duplicates that need manually merging?

I’m sure it’s something simple I’m not seeing!
