Hello everyone,
I have a problem retrieving data from a backend workflow.
So I gave an example here:
I retrieve the text in an input;
I click on the button that launches my backend workflow.
The backend workflow must add CACA before the word.
Then I display “CACAword” in the forehead.
But each time, it sends me back a number… which increments +2 each time.

Thank you very much!!!
