Exclude role in the signup (frontend) as it should be driven from the backend

Hey Guys, I added the field role So i added this in React: export const authClient = createAuthClient({ plugins: [inferAdditionalFields({ user: { role: { type: "string" } } })], but now, when a user signup, we should not ask for role... this field should not be driven by the frontend.. How can exclude it? #help

 const data = await authClient.signUp.email(
        {
          email,
          password,
          name,
          role: "CLIENT", // TODO: remove this
        },
        {
          onRequest: (ctx) => {
            console.log("onRequest", ctx);
            //show loading
          },
          onSuccess: (ctx) => {
            console.log("onSuccess", ctx);
            //redirect to the dashboard or sign in page
          },
          onError: (ctx) => {
            // display the error message
            console.log("onError", ctx);
          },
        }

 const data = await authClient.signUp.email(
        {
          email,
          password,
          name,
          role: "CLIENT", // TODO: remove this
        },
        {
          onRequest: (ctx) => {
            console.log("onRequest", ctx);
            //show loading
          },
          onSuccess: (ctx) => {
            console.log("onSuccess", ctx);
            //redirect to the dashboard or sign in page
          },
          onError: (ctx) => {
            // display the error message
            console.log("onError", ctx);
          },
        }

you can pass input:false in the field config on your auth config

I did what you suggest but I still have a typescript error in react in the signup mutation.. it expects the role
