Hello!

I’ve added a hidden field (named ‘bid’) to a form, and I’m populating with JavaScript:

Feathery.init(‘ID’)  
Feathery.renderAt(‘form-container’, { formName: “FORM\_NAME” });  
Feathery.setFieldValues({bid: “value”});

When I check it in the console (before submitting), I see the value in there using this line:

console.log(Feathery.getFieldValues());

However, I don’t see the value in my responses, nor in my webook that I attached.

Can you link to the form where you’ve added this logic that isn’t working for you?

It seems you’re calling it a little too early. I recommend you call the function as part of the onLoad event handler ([onLoad() - Feathery Docs](https://docs.feathery.io/develop/react/api-guide/form/event-handlers/onload))

Adding the field setting to onLoad totally fixed this. Thanks!
