New syntax for $posted_data

    I try to dynamically set the recipient of a form according to the value of a drop down. I found this code that seems to be outdated and also other posts related to the syntax for this code. It sends the e-mail to ‘else’ conditions regardless of the option selected.

    I couldn’t find documentation on the docs.
    What is the new way of getting the posted data?

    if ( $posted_data['enquiry-type'] == 'Option A' ) { // If General option is selected
    $recipient_email = '[email protected]';
    }
    elseif ( $posted_data['enquiry-type'] == '    Option B' ) { // else if Media option is selected
    $recipient_email = 'yyy@mail.fr';
    }
    elseif ( $posted_data['enquiry-type'] == 'Option C' ) { // else if Jobs option is selected
    $recipient_email = 'zzz@mail.fr';
    }
    else { // If no dropdown option is selected
    $recipient_email = '[email protected]';
    }

    // set the email address to recipient
    $mailProp = $contact_form->get_properties(‘mail’);
    $mailProp[‘mail’][‘recipient’] = $recipient_email;

    // update the form properties
    $contact_form->set_properties(array(‘mail’ => $mailProp[‘mail’]));

    add_action( 'wpcf7_before_send_mail',
  function( $contact_form, &$abort, $submission ) {

   $posted_data = $submission->get_posted_data( 'enquiry-type' );
   $posted_data = implode( ', ', (array) $posted_data );

   if ( $posted_data == 'Option A' ) { 
      $recipient_email = '[email protected]';
   }
   elseif ( $posted_data == 'Option B' ) { 
      $recipient_email = '[email protected]';
   }
   elseif ( $posted_data == 'Option C' ) { 
      $recipient_email = '[email protected]';
   }
   else { // If no dropdown option is selected
      $recipient_email = '[email protected]';
   }
	
   $mailProp = $contact_form->get_properties('mail');
   $mailProp['mail']['recipient'] = $recipient_email;

   $contact_form->set_properties(array('mail' => $mailProp['mail']));
   },
	10, 3
);

    Thanks for your answer, this is what works for me to conditionally change the recipient according to the value of a drop-down field.
