Setting up a list to collect leads from filling out a form multiple times

I have list connected to a form that needs to collect leads even if they have filled the form out before. Right now, it is only collecting the lead once in the list, and will overwrite the information they have submitted before. I need the list to save the information anytime a lead has filled out the form.

Can someone assist?

What you can do it use a progressive form that asks different questions each time the fill out the form, that way they are not overwriting previous fields.  Here is a doc:  Configure Form Progressive Profiling - Marketo Docs - Product Docs

Otherwise, that is the default behavior of a form

Hi Ariel,

In this case, you're going to want to set up twin fields: one to record the value stored the first time and then map the data into your "real" field in the backend. For instance, if you're storing comments on a form, you'd make a temporary field (in this case, I'm using "Fake Comment Field for Form") and then check against the Comment field:

FireShot Capture 118 - Marketo I 90d test (Flow) • Marketin_ - https___app-aba.marketo.com_#SC1711C3.png

By echoing {{lead.Comment}} ; {{lead.Fake Comment Field for Form}}, you're actually first calling the existing data in the Comment field and then adding the new commentary at the end of that value.
