Hi Nook, welcome to the community. I tested your findings and found the same result, and this is a bug.

Here is a workaround that you can make use of in the meantime:

Below a sample form:

children:
  - type: component.form
    instanceId: record
    options:
      children:
        - type: component.text-field
          instanceId: first_name
          options:
            label: First Name
        - type: component.text-field
          instanceId: last_name
          options:
            label: Last Name
        - type: component.email-field
          instanceId: email
          options:
            label: Email
        - type: component.number-field
          instanceId: incident_count
          options:
            label: Incident Count
            initialValue: 0

Your action is most likely configured in the following way

actions:
  - children:
      - type: action.execute-entity
        options:
          title: Create Record
          provider: DATA_PROVIDER_LOCAL
          entity: default/summary
          method: create
          goBack: previous
          data: 
            first_name: =@ctx.components.first_name.state.value
            last_name: =@ctx.components.last_name.state.value
            email: =@ctx.components.email.state.value
            incident_count: =@ctx.components.incident_count.state.value

Instead of binding each field with the component you can also achieve the same thing using the following:

actions:
  - children:
      - type: action.execute-entity
        options:
          title: Create Record
          provider: DATA_PROVIDER_LOCAL
          entity: default/summary
          method: create
          goBack: previous
          data: =@ctx.components.record.state.data

Note: If you pass the form data using data: =@ctx.components.record.state.data the instanceId of each component automatically becomes the field name.

I hope this workaround will allow you to continue with your project.

Let me know if you have any questions.
