I am trying to ask for user import for values in a model. It would ask for a number and than use CloudPut to store that number. This value will than be later used in an equation. I was thinking I could store the numbers and associated variable name with CloudPut by asking in a FormFunction using CloudDeploy for entry on web.  
I can not figure out how to do this correctly. I have tried various methods but this is the closest I have come but it is not storing it correctly. Any ideas on how to do this? Thanks.

```
In[78]:= CloudDeploy[FormFunction["testn"->"Number",CloudPut[testn,"test"]]]

```

The result which is not giving the number, but the variable name  
In[88]:= CloudGet[“test”]  
Out[88]= testn

UPDATE: I figured out how to do this. The correct command is:

```
CloudDeploy[FormFunction["testn"->"Number",CloudPut[#testn,"test"]&]]

```

And gives…

```
In[84]:= CloudGet["test"]

Out[84]= 556

```
