Field validation in a set

Support
1

Is it correct, that field validation, does not work in sets? I have a Repeater-field which itself contains a set of other fields. This is all working fine, but I cannot seem to validate the fields within the set.

{
  "field": {
    "type": "set",
    "options": {
      "fields": [
        {
          "name": "text",
          "label": "Text",
          "maxlength": "200",
          "required": true,
          "type": "text"
        },
        ...
      ]
    }
  }
}

Neither shows me an error when the field is empty, nor when I enter more then 200 characters.

Is there no possibility to validate fields listed in a Set?

I’m not sure right now, if validation works inside sets and repeaters - but if or if not, you have to adjust your field options a little bit so the nested fields receive their options properly:

{
  "field": {
    "type": "set",
    "options": {
      "fields": [
        {
          "name": "text",
          "label": "Text",
          "type": "text",
          "options": { // <-- nested field options
            "maxlength": "200",
            "required": true,
          }
        },
        ...
      ]
    }
  }
}

As always spot on. Thanks!

Field validation does not work in sets of fields in repeater?

{
“fields”: [
{
“type”: “set”,
“label”: “Category”,
“options”: {
“display”: “name”,
“fields”: [
{
“name”: “parentName”,
“type”: “text”,
“label”: “Parent name”
},
{
“name”: “categoryName”,
“type”: “text”,
“label”: “Category”,
“options”: {
“required”: true
}
},
{
“name”: “categoryNote”,
“type”: “textarea”,
“label”: “Note”
},
{
“name”: “categoryOrder”,
“type”: “text”,
“label”: “Order”,
“options”: {
“type”: “number”,
“rows”: 2
}
},
{
“name”: “categoryImg”,
“type”: “image”,
“label”: “Image”
}
]
}
}
]
}
