   Hello Sayyed,
   
   You can use the CRM Static Value widget to populate the current user ID to a specific field by checking the "Use Logged In Users Contact ID" checkbox. To populate the current date-time to the field, I suggest using the modifiedon attribute for the record, it usually reflects the change time properly. Otherwise use a CRM Date-Time Field and use JavaScript to set it to the current date on load of the form.
