not supporting debounce is pretty sad. Any plans to look into this :) ? I was not able to find any workarounds for this in other issues or discord.

Trying some stuff with setIntervals/async functions/storing values in appsmith state always seems to fail on something.

Thanks!

Hey, So I tried using this in the onBlur method of a text input widget, and I get a weird error.

https://github.com/appsmithorg/appsmith/assets/60510869/615cfe3a-6632-447e-b94a-afda8f563e9c

Code -

_.debounce(()=>storeValue('currentTest',{...appsmith.store.currentTest,title:inp_name.text}),500)

Basically, I am setting the store value to the field value when user clicks out of the text field. But I am not able to use debounce here.
