Associating data with a user

    I have a gravity forms multi page form. My user flow is they register, fill out the form. They can come back and edit the form at any time.

    I am migrating from ninja forms and using the GF API to post data to the form. The problem is when the user logs in, they don’t see the data, presumably because the data was never associated with the user.

    Is there any function to call to associate or persist the data to associate thee form to the user as if they didn’t complete the form?
    I am also assuming that if I don’t check clear persistence on submit, the data would remain for the user next time they login.

    Thanks

    They are not seeing migrated data or newly entered data after activation of this plugin? This plugin holds the data in a complete separate location from gravity forms. It does not pull from the gravity forms tables with an associated id of some kind.

    Thanks. i was able to find the data in the options table and we were able to have the form associate upon login with the user. That works now.

    but now, and I noticed there is another thread on this, the data is there, but after a period of time it disappears. I have set the persistence time to be 5 years. originall I had nothing in that field which according to docs, would be forever, but that also made it disappear.
