zod array still required?

Somehow following in my zod schema still requires my field

tags: z.string().array().nullish(),

tags: z.string().array().nullish(),

Submitting my form I still get

tags
: 
message
: 
"Expected array, received string"

I’ve not used zod but I’d imagine “nullish” would mean it can be set to null. meaning a value is still required (string or null). .optional() would probably be what you want.

Did not work, the docs say following nullish is equivalent to

z.string().optional().nullable();

z.string().optional().nullable();

it worked on other fields which were only strings

"Expected array, received string" you're giving it a string when it wants an array. i didnt even read the error msg tbh

but it seems there is something different with an array? The thing is I am not giving it anything, let me double check to be sure nah not working strange

Check you're not passing in an empty string.
