How to pass list to a drop down inside a edit grid in form

[Nitin_Mishra]

Hello Everyone,

I am stuck at one place where I need to pass a list to a drop down field inside edit grid in a form. I was able to do it in versions 2.x, 1.x etc by passing the argument for the property with ‘_dropdown’ at the end but not sure how to do it for forms with latest versions like 23.x.

Any help will be much appreciated.

Please try this

New UiForms Don't Allow Dynamic Dropdowns

@Jon_Smith So after a little trail and error …we can get the value…using get form values activity…so basically use show forms as above and then use get form values activity with same variable name but now select it a string and assign a variable to it…you can see the value that you selected [image] Show form activity [image] Get forms values [image] [image] looks like it is now seggregated into two instead of combining into one Hope this helps cheers

Hi @Anil_G

Thanks for reply, but there is no information in the post that tells how to pass the list to a drop down when it is inside a edit/data grid component. Can you please help me with that, when the drop down is within edit/data grid?

Dynamic Drop-Down Inside Edit Grid Component of Form Designer

Hello, Can anybody help me understand if it is possible to pass a list of options into a drop-down nested inside an edit grid in Form Designer? I am working on a workflow where I need a custom form that allows for the user to enter multiple items that each consist of two strings - one from a textbox entered directly by the user, and the other from a dropdown list of options. In order to allow any number of items to be entered, I’ve inserted a text field and a drop-down field into an Edit Grid…
