Description

When you add a conditional field to a collection's column array, the output is [object Object] instead of the value within the conditional.

They also do not show up as a valid column in a collection() config dict in TypeScript.

Reproduce a collection with a conditional column, then trace why its value becomes [object Object]. Done means the conditional value renders correctly and the column is accepted as valid TypeScript configuration.
