How to hide available id value in Dynamic dropdown, because i want to send secret id to backend. about zapier-platform HOT 4 CLOSED

I'm confused - if you want the value to be hidden, why show it in the UI at all?

It sounds like you should add the data to your request in perform. There, it's hidden from the user and you can send it wherever you want.

If i want to use another filed in selected object from trigger, in above example if user select "first option", i want to send another field in that object like date or guid. And hidden filed issue is different from this there you mentioned to use "computed" to hide filed in UI but it's not working.

Computed fields are only for auth data in oauth and session apps, so they're not directly used for actions at all.

Are you describing something that would be handled like this?

// perform method of a trigger/action
const payload = {a: 1, b: 2}
if (inputData.someField === 'first') {
  payload.date = new Date()
}

return z.request(..., {body: payload})

it's a basic example, but this lets you change the data you send based on what the user sees. No hidden fields necessary. Does that make sense?
