Hi I am a newbee to the FormJS project, there is a question about the form variables. In my requirement, the form input data is releated with an approval process, in the form, the input “days” will be decided to forward to the different process branch. So I need to get this input “days” element to make a condition variable to make a decison. I hope the form element “days” can have an attribute to mark it as a condition type variable, so I can get all these kind of input elements and their values.

There is a method getSchemaVariables(), it only get all the variables name, without any special attribute info and input values. Hope someone can make any suggestions here. Thanks!
