Steps to Reproduce

1.Component where Form exists:

const widgets = { myCustomWidget: Measurements, } … Html render: Form fields={fields} schema={schema} uiSchema={uiSchema} formData={formData} widgets={widgets}>

1. Custom field Measurements: constructor(props) { this.state = {…props.formData,fetchedData:[]}; }

componentDidMount(){ #Want to get the values from the formData here this.props }

Expected behavior

FormData fields data to be passed on custom field.

Actual behavior

You can usually get this information in your package.json or in the file URL if you’re using the unpkg one.
