Hey,
for some applications, before you will use the ‘select item’ , you need to use ‘click’ activity to expand the list and then the ‘select item’ activity works correctly.

And don’t forget to add ‘_dropdown’ after variable name.

Please take a look to this example
dropList (1).zip (3.3 KB)

Thank you for your fast reply, when I tried to download the file you provided, I had some dependency issues, so I wasn’t able to see your workflow example but with your screenshot example and the dynamic dropdown doc it really helped thank you.
