The 2026 Drupal Business Survey is open. Your response will help shape the future of the Drupal business ecosystem.I'm porting a webform from webforms 3.0 to 4.0 on a new Drupal installation. I have a module that intercepts a webform and does some stuff, and it expects to get the webform data on $form_state["values"]['submitted_tree'], as happened on 3.0.
However, $form_state["values"]['submitted_tree'] seems to be gone.
There is still $form_state["values"]['submitted'] but it has no keys, $form_state["values"]['details'] but it has no useful data and $form_state["values"]['submit'] that seems to have some random keys.
Cans somebody help me with this? Thanks!

quicksketchIn order to increase consistency in our data structures, we eliminated $form_state['values']['submitted_tree']. Now $form_state['values'] matches $submission->data really quite closely, making it so we can share API functions for them. It also eliminates some recursion in the code, and uses less memory if we're not keeping two copies of the same data in different structures. In truth I don't think we used 'submitted_tree' in the 3.x branch, it was there for compatibility with the *2.x* branch, over 6 years ago.
So in order to use the 4.x branch, your code will need to be updated.

quicksketchThanks, this is actually the same change set as the $submission->values structure changing, so I've just extended the current entry at https://drupal.org/node/1609324#submission-structure.
