Copying Smart Dropdown Label via ITFFF in Confiform doesn't work
Asked by Mandy Butschke-Lange:

I have two forms (form1, form2). When saving or editing entries in form1, they are transferred to form2 via IFTTT. When saving, an error occurs at the following point:

In form1 I have a field called "Dropdown" of the type "Smart Dropdown". The values for this come from a third form called "DropdownValues", which is on the same page.  
In form2 I have a field called "DropdownTextfield" of type "Text". When saving form1, the value (=label) from form1 "Dropdown" should be saved in form2 "DropdownTextfield".

I have entered the following in IFTTT:  
entryId=\[entry.id\]\&Name=\[entry.Name\]\&DropdownTextfield=\[entry.Dropdown.label\]\&Link=\[entry.Link\]\&Comment=\[entry.Comment\]  
An error occurs here --\> the value of the dropdown appears to be empty

If I change the whole thing in IFTTT so that only the ID is transferred, but not the label, it works perfectly - but that's not what I need.  
entryId=\[entry.id\]\&Name=\[entry.Name\]\&DropdownTextfield=\[entry.Dropdown\]\&Link=\[entry.Link\]\&Comment=\[entry.Comment\]

Where exactly is my error?

Here is the storage format.
