Hey, is there a bug because I cannot connect any text to “setConfirmButton” or “setCancelButton”: ![13](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/2/1/2157cd4ff1b1ad6f298d66ca253a59bb2f030eab.png) it will only allow to connect blocks like “generate json from object” or “getConfirmButton” which makes basically no sense 😕 ---
