I am trying to embed a form in a detailed screen but the submit button is not working. What should I do?

What happens when you add another component to the form container… say a regular switch component or a text entry component with something filled out… Does the submit button work then? I had a similar issue where in Classic apps I could submit a form with only hidden components, it seems in New Apps at least one entry component/choice component needs to be visible and filled for the submit button to work (Use current location not counting)

One workaround which I used was to put a single option choice component on the form screen and set its value prior to opening the page. Something like ✅ was my display value.

I believe that @Eric_Penn is correct. You need at least one Form Input component with a value in it. A location component is not a Form Input component.
