Inconsistencies using IFTTT and resulting styles

[Daniel Brooks]

Using ConfiForms, I'm attempting to insert a default value into a Dropdown (or Status) using an IFTTT macro. The Event is 'onCreated', the action is 'Create / Update Confiforms Entry'. The Parameters to set on the entry is 'entryId=[entry.id]&Status=Requested' where Status is a dropdown field.

This functionality works, but it sets the CSS class for the field to be a lozenge:

class="aui-lozenge aui-lozenge-subtle"

But the css class for dropdowns selected manually show up without the lozenge:

cf-field="Status" class="Status-3"

I've tried using a "Status" field instead of a dropdown and the problem becomes inverted. Manually selected values end up as lozenge, but the one automatically created with IFTTT has no lozenge.

Any idea what's going on? Is this a bug?

Thanks

Hi @d2_brooks 

Most probably you are setting your dropdown field to a LABEL, instead of an ID (which you have defined for field’s options)

You need to set it to an ID value

Ok yes, that resolved the problem. But say I did want to set the label with IFTTT, it still shouldn't alter the css like that, no?

If you have a field where you have defined options (id/label) then you need to set the  id (All other values are not recognized by the field)
