Hello Forest Admin Team !

Is there any solution to change smart actions form field display text without changing input name ? Like a “label” prop ?

When I switch to layout editor mode, there is setting cogs but it doesn’t work  
 ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex013/uploads/forest/original/2X/0/076748faa5a423e0db416a64b8dfd38eb4f6d7d4.png)

I know I can change “field” prop but it change display text AND variable name. And attributes[“Name of my field”] is not very clean…

Thanks for your help

Hello @Sharp,

Thanks for your message 🙏

So if I rephrase, you wish it would be possible to have a `displayName` (for instance “Information to enter”) in addition to the `field` option (that would be “informationToEnter”), so that you can refer easily to the field in your code by using `fields.informationsToEnter` and not `field["Information to enter"]` anymore (and of course keeping the nice “Information to enter” phrase displayed in the frontend).

Am I right?

Hello @anon34731316 !  
Yes, exactly 👌🏻  
Actually, if I update displayed text, I have to update my code…

Ok I see…  
The answer is no, unfortunately it’s not possible at the moment.  
But I’m adding a feature request in our Product board so that it can be tackled one day.

Thanks for having shared this! 🙌
