Is there a way to only show a custom field based on the answer to another custom field

I'm trying to make a paragraph custom field appear when a date custom field meets a specific criteria.

 
IF(ISBLANK({DE:Test Date Field with Logic}),"",IF({DE:Test Date Field with Logic}<ADDHOURS($$NOW,"48"),{DE:To help us better understand and meet the needs of our partners, please let us know why this request requires expedited production.}))
 
Has anyone done anything like this? Is it even possible?

no, this isn't how Workfront works at the moment (Aug 2025). The way most admins work around this today might be to use validation logic that indicates this kind of thing but force users to fill out an existing always-visible paragraph field with a more generic name, like "additional notes".

Thank you! That is currently what we are doing but as you know the owners would prefer a logic to only have the field appear if it applies.

I do like validation and hope this additional logic will be a next step.
