Hello! I'm using Hosted Checkout and when I generate the request, the names and emails are all good - but in the resulting Hosted Checkout they are obscured with asterisks, and I also cannot edit the values there - any ideas?

Hi @
Are you using the hosted checkout option under Account & Setup in your Merchant Dashboard? If you customized it can you paste an excerpt of the UI code?
Thanks
To add - I am then using the API to generate me a link to create the hosted checkout - passing it the shopping cart object with customer information included and getting back the URL of the Hosted Checkout - all of that works pretty well and I verified that I'm passing along the right text in the request (names and emails without any ***)
Thanks
If you are ok with the fields being blank and the user/client manually filling out all the fields themselves, then you can just pass in an empty object to the customer field. That is what I do :)
I just tested it and that does work - so worst case I suppose I can do that - but I'd rather be able to pass along the customer like you'd expect and not have to have them reenter the info...
Does the same thing happen to you if you pass along a customer? (*** in the names and email)
Thanks
It does the same thing for me. These days most people probably are using autocomplete on their forms, so it shouldn't be the worst user experience. Regardless it is unfortunate the pre-populated fields aren't editable
In hosted checkout only email address is required to be sent.
What is the problem with it being obscured? (I do not agree with it being obscured, but have learned to live with it)
