   Hi there,
 * I’m encountering an issue while trying to pass a value from WPForms. Although
   it might be something obvious, I am unable to figure it out on my own.
 * In my form, there is a checkbox with multiple choices. However, whenever I choose
   an option, the value sent to Uncanny is always the numerical index of the choice,
   instead of the choice’s text. For instance, when I select “powders,” the value
   sent is “1,” not the word “powders.”
 * Surprisingly, I cannot find this numerical value (“1”) in the HTML – I have attached
   a screenshot for reference. Could you please help me understand where this value
   is coming from?
 * Thank you for your assistance. I appreciate any help you can offer!
   Best,Gui

 * Sorry [@guiberlin](https://wordpress.org/support/users/guiberlin/) , in your 
   recipe you should be using the “(label)” version of your form field token instead,
   as it will output the string value that the user selects. The numerical value
   is basically the numbered value of the entry in fields where there are multiple
   selections.
 * Can you try the other token and let us know if you are then seeing the value 
   you expect in the token output?
 * Thanks
