+### Migration
+
+#### Convert type of value from form fields before using it
+
+To read a value from formFields where id is `name`,
+
+Before:
+
+```python
+# form_fields should be of type List[FormField]
+name: str | None = None
+for field in form_fields:
+    if field.id == 'name':
+        name = field.value
+```
+
+After:
+
+```python
+# form_fields should be of type List[FormField]
+name: str | None = None
+for field in form_fields:
+    if field.id == 'name':
+        # Check type to ensure it's of type string
+        value_to_consume = field.value
+        if not isinstance(value_to_consume, str):
+            # Throw error
+            raise ValueError('name needs to be a string')
+        name = str(value_to_consume)
+```
