    I'm building a custom widget, and would like to be able to reference the values from other fields within my widget. Is there an API call to get the values from other fields?

    I'm not sure if there is, but you can check our Jotform API documents for more details and API lists: https://api.jotform.com/docs/. 

    You can also email your request at api@jotform.com. They will help you to get the API you want.

    There is nothing there, but I know some widgets can access them (i.e. the Text Field widget can insert field values). So wondering if that is possible but just not documented.

    If API for getting values from other fields is not documented then the only way to get them and so you can continue doing your custom widget is to email the Jotform API: api@jotform.com.

    ok.  I've emailed them before and got no answer regarding another question so not optimistic I'll hear anything back but I'll try.
