    I'm not sure which field are you trying to extract the strings from:

    But the widget only works with single liner fields such as SHORT TEXT ENTRY field. It won't work for other field types especially for multi-liner/box fields.

    If you could specify which of the fields you want to extract the strings from, we'll try it on our end and provide possible solutions.

    Okay, so looking on the form, the field ID you used seems incorrect:

    The field ID is not available when you're on CARD FORM, so only the unique name is shown here:

    So in order to view the field ID, switch to CLASSIC LAYOUT, copy the field id there, and revert to CARD FORM:

    1604092596 5f9c82b410c9b  Screenshot 43

    So it should be #input_68.

    Please try that and let us know how it goes on your end.
