Automatically Changing Field A Based on Field B
4 repliesLast updated: Jan 18, 2023
Is the current/best way to change field A based on field B (with live updates) still to use a listener on the field and then a patch or mutation?
What kind of change do you mean? You can use the
hiddenand
readOnlykeys. Or are you looking at doing something more complicated?
For example, when field A is set to "title", set field B to "title something else"
If you want it to automatically change, then you will still want to use a listener and a patch. Otherwise, you can do something like a document action that updates the value of B when the document is published.
Well, they'd want to be able to change it, so yeah, a listener. It's tricky because we need to fill if empty, otherwise, don't change it. In our situation, it's
