Any advice for handling floats values as Parameters? Will selecting integer in this menu coerce my values?

I dont think there is coercion. I think that’s just to change the input field in the UI

Hmm interesting... the integer label in the UI is a little odd if it floats are allowed

Hi @Jacqueline Riley Garrahan - Kevin is correct. The ui input fields are there mainly to help make input simpler. If you want to be sure of what you're setting you can use the json input option to check it matches what you want to send.

Great re non coercion. I demoed our application to some of our researcher-users today and the Integer label was a point of confusion. Would your team consider changing this to something more reflective of accepted data input?

We're always open to input and suggestions. Feel free to open a ticket in the UI repo setting out some of your use case and what you'd like to see and we can consider it for future development.
