Hi anushas0002,

Use this Function isusermemberofgroup(), and also put showWhen condition in dropdown.

Example code: showWhen: if(
isusermemberofgroup(
username: loggedInUser(),
groupId:cons!ISAM_GROUP_SUPER_USER
),
true(),
false()
),

You can do it like the below based on your use case,

/*To check if the loggedInUser is an Appian system administrator*/
a!dropdownField(
  showWhen: isusersystemadministrator(
    loggedInUser()
  )
  /* OTHER PARAMETERS*/
)

/*To check if the loggedInUser() is a member of any Application group*/
a!dropdownField(
  showWhen: isusermemberofgroup(
    loggedInUser(), 123 /* group ID */
  )
  /* OTHER PARAMETERS*/
)

Thanks,

Raghu
