Using Choice Set
A choice set is a type of a Data Service field, used to store an enumerated list of selectable items.
You can use a choice set to select an expense type, a forum post category, or a certain edition of a recurring event.
You can bind choice sets to the following controls:
- Dropdown
- Multiselect dropdown
- List
-
Radio Button
Binding choice sets to a list source returns the options in that choice set.
Binding choice sets to a selected item binds the field value of that selected item.
When bounding to a selected item, it will bind the field value to that selected item.
Make sure:
-
the entity with choice sets is imported in your app.
-
you have the proper permissions from Data Service.
This example uses an entity called Fauna that has the following fields:
- Animals - type Choice Set, multiple selection not allowed
- Continent - type Choice Set, multiple selection allowed
- Endangered - type Choice Set, multiple selection not allowed
- In your app, add the Fauna entity.
You must include at least one entity to use the
GetChoiceSet()function. - Add a Dropdown control and configure it as follows:
- In the List Source field, reference the Animals choice set:
GetChoiceSet("Animals")GetChoiceSet("Animals") - In the Column field, write "DisplayName". This displays the display name of the choice set as an option in your control.
- In the List Source field, reference the Animals choice set:
-
Add a Multiselect dropdown control and configure it as follows:
- In the List Source field, reference the Continent choice set:
GetChoiceSet("Continent")GetChoiceSet("Continent") - In the Column field, write "DisplayName". This displays the display name of the choice set as an option in your control.
- In the List Source field, reference the Continent choice set:
-
Add a Radio Button control and configure it as follows:
-
In the List Source field, reference the Endangered choice set:
GetChoiceSet("Endangered")GetChoiceSet("Endangered") - In the Column field, write "DisplayName". This displays the display name of the choice set as an option in your control.
