Issue & Reproduction Steps

First Financial Bank - Validation Rules for Hidden Required Fields Inside Loops Are Inconsistently Applied

Expected behavior:
Hidden required fields should not be validated.
Validation should only apply to inputs that are visible and active at the time of submission.

Actual behavior:
When the screen loads, all three loop instances are created (because the default count is 3).
Even if the input fields are hidden (checkbox unchecked), the system still tries to validate them.
As a result:

Clicking Submit triggers “The field is required” errors for all hidden inputs.
If you check only the second or third checkbox and fill that input, the hidden ones still fail validation.
If you check and fill only the first input, the form submits successfully — even though the others remain hidden and empty.

This makes validation inconsistent depending on which iteration is visible or filled.

Solution

Added isVisible and insideLoop validation

How to Test

Create a new screen.

Add a Loop container loop_1.
Set Default Loop Count: 3

Inside loop_1, add:

A Checkbox form_checkbox_1.
A Required Line Input form_input_1.

For the Visibility Rule of form_input_1, set:

form_checkbox_1
(so the input only appears when the checkbox is checked).
Add a Submit button outside the loop.

In Preview mode:

Leave all checkboxes unchecked
Click Submit → all hidden required fields fail validation.
Check only the second or third checkbox and fill the input → hidden instances still fail validation.
Check and fill only the first instance → submission succeeds, even if other hidden fields exist.
