@chandannkumar this may be happening across different fields as well, have you checked across all the types of possible inputs already?

[chandannkumar]

Yes, I have tested for all field types of json form
The issue for not clearing the previous input exists only on Currency Input type and not other field types.

Thanks for the info. We will triage this.

React Hook Form doesn't take undefined as a value and when we clear a currency input we are actively setting the value as undefined as it is a numeric field. As this undefined is not supported by React Hook Form, it is changed to whatever the previous field's default value was as a fallback.

The ideal way to fix this is to not use undefined but use null when clearing the value.

This change may break users' apps so this should be fixed in V2.

Does the currency input field work at all within a JSON form? Because I can't change the value.

@Skarema The current input field value is not working because of this issue. Let me check with the team to prioritise this
