Unable to Access Hidden Fields in Logic Settings

I am currently experiencing an issue with my Typeform logic settings.

Specifically, I have created hidden fields (score_a and score_b) and need to use them for branching and calculations based on user responses. However, when I try to set up the logic for a question, the hidden fields do not appear as selectable options in the logic settings interface.

Here is what I have done so far:

  1. Created the hidden fields score_a and score_b.
  2. Verified that the hidden fields are correctly set up in the form settings.
  3. Attempted to configure the logic settings for a specific question to update these hidden fields.
  4.  

Despite following these steps, I am unable to see the hidden fields in the logic settings dropdown. I have also tried refreshing the page and logging out and back in, but the issue persists.

 I need to use the hidden fields in the following way:

  • Increment score_a by 1 if a specific option is selected.
  • Similar logic for score_b based on another condition.

I would greatly appreciate someone’s guidance on how to make the hidden fields visible and usable in the logic settings.

@OSVALDOO - don’t set them up as hidden variables - that means they have to be passed into the form through a url. also they are text variables when created as hidden .. so you can’t add a number to them. just sayin

just create two custom variables and do the same thing… they will show up in the lists..
