I have an app that uses a drop down list and an action tool to update the sql statement in an in-db tool.
This work fine running the app in designer. It was working fine on server in 2022.1 but since we upgraded to 2023.1 it is not working.
The action tool is passing the NAME not the VALUE from the NAME:VALUE pair in from the drop down list.
This is a bug.

Hey @wwatson ,
If you believe this is a bug, please submit a case to Alteryx support letting them know about this. Usually, they request an example so they can recreate in their environment.

Any news on this? We also noticed this issue on the same version. The dropdown works on designer, but the behaviour changes on the server...

Has anyone patched to 2023.1.1.247 (Released 22/08) that can confirm it's resolved? It's not in the Known issues/fixes list on https://help.alteryx.com/release-notes/server/server-20231-release-notes

Seems like the problem related to NAME:VALUE pairing was solved, but other problems do remain unsolved. In particular, the tree tool in chained apps is not working correctly.
