Form Select Input Custom Value not working

  • Goal: Select Input Field in Forms should allow for custom values to be added to the list and reused for future dropdown options.

  • Steps: Custom input is enabled and will allow it to be submitted, but not saved for future select options. When trying to link the database to pull existing values it does not work, no options are pulled and the database selection does not stay in place. Publishing does not help either

I have screen recording, but it doesn't allow me to upload them due to file size.

Please take some screenshots and post them.... :slight_smile:

Database doesn't link existing values, but also my resource selection when using Dynamic Data will not stay in place and resets to empty values


When using manual data, it will allow custom values, but the new ones are not being added to the dropdown list:



Hi @Nicole_Reiter,
Can you please export your json file from your app? It will help me to see how you are setting your components and queries up.

Thanks! :grinning:

I'm using Forms and I don't see any export option there? Can you point me in the right direction how I could export this?

@Nicole_Reiter,
Ahh, I did not realize you were using FORMS. You can't export a json from FORMS. I have been able to reproduce the bug you are experiencing with the Select component. Until this gets fixed, I would suggest you move to building an App and using the form component inside the App instead. The select component works fine there. :grinning:

Ok thanks. Do you have an estimated timeline for the fix?

@Nicole_Reiter,
Unfortunately, no, there is no timeline for this.

@Nicole_Reiter,
The dynamic options has been fixed on the Forms product! I am going to close out this ticket.
