    Yep, the issue is solved. I’m not exactly sure which specific event needed to be triggered, but I found a trick. First, I ran ‘monitorEvents(el)’ in the tools console. After then manually interacting with the form field–the way that gets the field validated–I looked over all the events that appeared. This way, you can try likely events directly instead of going through everything.

    Now, the surefire solution was to trigger a bunch of events, like this:

    `javascript
    el.dispatchEvent(new Event(“focus”));
    el.dispatchEvent(new Event(“pointerup”));
    el.dispatchEvent(new Event(“mouseup”));
    el.dispatchEvent(new Event(“click”));
    el.dispatchEvent(new Event(“keydown”));
    el.dispatchEvent(new Event(“input”));
    el.dispatchEvent(new Event(“keyup”));
    el.dispatchEvent(new Event(“keypress”));
    el.dispatchEvent(new Event(“textInput”));
    el.dispatchEvent(new Event(“blur”));
    `
    This worked like a charm!
