If a reusable component isn’t passed the data it expects, some things fail silently. This is not intuitive, especially for reusable components where you might not know everywhere they are used (that’s the point of reusability). I spent the last couple hours trying to figure out why the Created/Modified date are empty on this record, and whether Bubble automatically populates them (it’s my first time using those fields). It would be nicer if I could set the data object as “required” for this component so that I can get a publishing error if I use it somewhere and don’t provide the required data.
