You can refer https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/22.3/Dropdown_Component.html for dropdown component. For displaying data from record type use a!queryRecordType function and then pass it choice labels and choice values based on your requirement.
Please refer https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/22.3/Query_Recipes.html to know more about how to query from record.
sample code
{ a!dropdownField( label: "LabelName", labelPosition: "ABOVE", placeholder: "--- Select a Value ---", choiceLabels: a!queryRecordType( recordType: yourRecordName, fields: {}, pagingInfo: a!pagingInfo(startIndex: 1, batchSize: 100) ).data[access the fiield], choiceValues: a!queryRecordType( recordType: yourRecordName, fields: {}, pagingInfo: a!pagingInfo(startIndex: 1, batchSize: 100) ).data[field], saveInto: {}, searchDisplay: "AUTO", validations: {} )}
Hi, Sandya instead of querying the data twice we can call it in the local variable and then index it in choice labels and values.
And we can insert the code using the code box.
Yes, just gave sample one.
Thanks I will try that
