Pulling information into fields with same name

Community Beginner ,
Aug 17, 2023 Aug 17, 2023

Hello Community, I am having a little trouble with a form I am working with. The form contains 4 or 5 text fields that have the same name. Ive noticed that Adobe is appending #0, #1, #2 to the fields I am using. I read that this is default behavior by Adobe Acrobat PRO. The issue I am having is I would like these 4-5 fields to have the SAME field name, without the appended numbers, because I am pulling information in from an external system and imprinting it on the form. The JSON file used for the data pull is looking for (for example):

[Client_Name] but what the form contains is [Client_Name]#0, [Client_Name]#1, [Client_Name]#2 so on and so forth. Is the quickest way to work around this doing custom JS scripts? Thanks a ton in advance.Client Name.PNGExample 1.PNG

When you use several fields with the same name you will see the widget indexes.
