The Core Component Form Hidden component allows for the display of a hidden field.
The Core Component Form Hidden Component allows for the creation of hidden fields to pass information about the current page back to AEM and is intended to be used along with the form container component.
The field properties can be defined by the content editor in the configure dialog.
The current version of the Form Hidden Component is v2, which was introduced with release 2.0.0 of the Core Components in January 2018, and is described in this document.
The following table details all supported versions of the component, the AEM versions with which the versions of the component is compatible, and links to documentation for previous versions.

Further details about developing Core Components can be found in the Core Components developer documentation.
The configure dialog allows the content author to define the parameters of the hidden field.
Because the Form Hidden component normally has no visible attributes, the component’s placeholder in the editor displays the Name and Value field values if they are assigned in order to help the author identify the appropriate Form Hidden component.
The Form Hidden Component supports the AEM Style System.
