Passing a parameter to Open to the Internet App

Hi guys.  I am trying to pass a parameter (the related record ID) in a link I am sending to non-Quick Base users who will submit a survey via a Quick Base app that is open to everyone on the Internet. The link works for Quick Base users (i.e., the field gets populated correctly) but not for non-Quick Base users.  The link is:

Any ideas?

    Does the role you have given to the Everyone on the Internet User allow them to see the data in the table where this RID comes from?

    It allows them to add records, but not to view or edit records.
    I think I figured it out--it appears that you cannot pass a parameter to a reference field.  I believe this worked in the past--perhaps the new picker functionality broke it.  The workaround is to create a new numeric field, write the parameter to that field, and change the reference field to be a formula numeric field that points at the new field.  Works like a charm.  :)
