Select All Options from the User Filters Record

Question

Hi! 
 I was wondering if it&rsquo;s possible to add a &ldquo;Select All&rdquo; option to User Filters in a Record Type. I tried but couldn&rsquo;t find a way. The business needs to be able to select all options and then deselect a few, rather than having to select each one individually, which is time-consuming when there are many options. I know it&rsquo;s possible to do this in a custom interface, but I&rsquo;m curious if it can be done from the record side. 
 Thanks!

Hi Abdul Rahim , 
 Appian&rsquo;s native User Filters on Record Types do not currently support a &ldquo;Select All&rdquo; option out-of-the-box. 
 There&rsquo;s no built-in checkbox or UI for &ldquo;Select All&rdquo; in user filters configured directly in the Record Type. 
 Workarounds: 1. Custom Interface + Query Record Type If you need &ldquo;Select All&rdquo; with the ability to deselect a few: 
 Build a custom interface using: 
 a!multiDropdownField() with a "Select All" checkbox. 
 This gives full control over filtering logic.

Hi! 
 Yes, it's possible to select multiple options in user filters from the Record Type without needing a custom interface. You can also deselect any options as needed. However, there&rsquo;s no built-in "Select All" checkbox available on the record side&mdash;you'll need to manually select the options. 
 I&rsquo;ve attached screenshots showing:

Hope this helps!

Here is the code with select all value in multiple dropdown : a!localVariables(
 local!selectAll: if(
 rule!CASCO_utils_checkIsNull(ri!choicesLabels),
 {},
 { "Select All" }
 ),
 local!seletcAllVAlue: {
 rule!CCA_confg_getBasicValues(key: "selectAllValue")
 },
 local!choicesLabels: append(local!selectAll, ri!choicesLabels),
 local!choicesValues: append(local!seletcAllVAlue, ri!choicesValues),
 local!saved,
 {
 a!multipleDropdownField(
 placeholder: a!defaultValue(ri!placeHolder, "Select values"),
 choiceLabels: reject(
 rule!CASCO_utils_checkIsNull(_),
 local!choicesLabels
 ),
 choiceValues: reject(
 rule!CASCO_utils_checkIsNull(_),
 local!choicesValues
 ),
 label: a!defaultValue(
 value: ri!FieldLabel,
 default: "Multiple Dropdown"
 ),
 labelPosition: "ABOVE",
 value: ri!savedValue,
 saveInto: {
 local!saved,
 if(
 /*"Does our local contains select all value"*/
 contains(
 touniformstring(local!saved),
 local!seletcAllVAlue
 ),
 /*yes*/
 {
 if(
 contains(
 touniformstring(ri!savedValue),
 local!seletcAllVAlue
 ),
 {
 if(
 and(
 length(local!saved) = 1,
 local!saved = local!seletcAllVAlue
 ),
 { a!save(ri!savedValue, null) },
 ri!savedValue
 )
 },
 a!save(
 ri!savedValue,
 union(
 split(tostring(local!choicesValues), "; "),
 split(tostring(local!choicesValues), "; ")
 )
 )
 )
 },
 /*no*/
 {
 if(
 contains(
 touniformstring(ri!savedValue),
 local!seletcAllVAlue
 ),
 a!save(ri!savedValue, null),
 ri!savedValue
 )
 }

 ri!saveList
