Hi all,

As the title suggests, I'm trying to create a dropdown list in a webform. So, when a user is trying to edit the webform in a dashboard using the inline editing app, they will see a dropdown list with possible options. However, I cannot find a way to do that. Any help on how to do it?

    Unfortunately, Domo webforms aren't designed for that and have no data validation logic or capabilities such as dropdown lists. An alternative would be to build a custom app that is a form and you could build in dropdown list capabilities. Adding enhancements to the webform is a good idea, though, and could be worth submitting in the ideas exchange section of the Dojo.

    @Karim, Domo does sell the 'inline form editor' i believe it's called which will do what you're describing. (they also have a product for designing surveys ... which is again... similar to what you're describing, but i don't know the cost).


    @MarkSnodgrass , unfortunately since it is a premium feature ... lol... i can't imagine that Domo would make it free anytime soon. But who knows. we can always hope for DP21.
