When I have a data field of type number and trying to create a new thing, I can’t refer to inputs with content format set as either text, integer, decimal or text (numbers only). Why is this happening?
The weird thing about this is that “Input Testlänk” has the content format set as text.
Hi @jaos.pcl 
If the Status field is of type number, it won’t accept a value from the Input Testlank element because that value is of type text. This can be switched by changing the Input’s type to be decimal. With this setup, you wouldn’t be able to store text values within the Status field (only decimals and numbers). Does that work for your app’s purposes? Feel free to let me know if you have any questions!
Hi @fayewatson, thank you for your response. Input Testlänk isn’t the actual input I want to refer to, that Input got the type as Text, that’s the thing. Even if I change the type to decimal on the input I want to refer to, it doesn’t show up.
Did you already try to refresh the bubble editor page when it looks like in your screenshot? It solved this problem for me many times when Inputs didn’t appear.
Yep I agree, I’ve had this recently where the input is a number and when saving it won’t find the input in the workflow…then just a simple page refresh and the full list appears again.
If the page refresh is not working in the Bubble admin, just double check you have the input formatted as a number e.g. decimal
Then in the data type, check this is a number field type
In the workflow for saving the data (or making a change to existing data)
Best,

Ohh, I see! Just to double-check, if the page refresh doesn’t do it, is the input you’re trying to access from the workflow within a repeating group? (If so, it will not be accessible to workflows from elements that are outside of the repeating group)
Thanks all! A simple page refresh did the thing.
You sir, are a hero!
