Material UI TextField Custom Attribute

I am currently trying to set a custom data attribute to a TextField component as such:

class TestTextField extends React.Component {
componentDidMount() {console.log(this._input)}
  render() {
    return (
      <TextField
        label="Label 1"
        InputProps={{placeholder: 'Input 1', 'data-state': 'Data State 1'}}
        margin="normal"
        inputRef={(elem) => {this._input = elem}}
      />
    )
  }
}

However I can't get data-state to show up with the console log saying

 <textarea rows="1" class="MuiTextarea-textarea-67 MuiInput-input-56 MuiInput-inputMultiline-64" placeholder="Input 1" type="text">

Are custom attributes not supported for TextField? I am using v1.0.0-beta.6 (https://material-ui-1dab0.firebaseapp.com/api/text-field/)

As of MUI 6, text input attributes are set as follows:

      <TextField
        slotProps={{
          htmlInput: { 'data-index': index },
        }}

In case others didn't notice, @pier-paolo-ramon is saying to use the inputProps prop instead of the InputProps prop. Pay close attention to the case sensitivity.

<TextField
  inputProps={{placeholder: 'Input 1', 'data-state': 'Data State 1'}}
/>

As you can see custom props are passed to the FormControl component. What you want is probably inputProps which is then passed down to the actual <input /> (InputComponent is "input" by default)
