Multiselect

The Multiselect component enables users to select multiple options from a predefined list, making it ideal for gathering multiple inputs.

Data

Property
Description
Expected Value
LabelText to display as the label for the component.String (e.g., Select an option).
PlaceholderText to display when none of the options are selected.String (e.g., Select the loan type).

Options

Allows you to add options to the multiselect component field. You can click on Add new option and add options manually or enable Dynamic options and enter the options using code.

Example Code for Dynamic Columns

  1. Passing an array of objects and specifying each value:
{{
[{label: 'option1', value: 1, disable: false, visible: true, default: true},
{label: 'option2', value: 2, disable: false, visible: true},
{label: 'option3', value: 3, disable: false, visible: true}]
}}
  1. Passing an array of objects with a default value from a Table component's selected row:
{{
queries.getEmployees.data.map(option => ({
label: option.firstname,
value: option.firstname,
disable: false,
visible: true,
default: option.firstname === components.table1.selectedRow.firstname
}))
}}

Options loading state

Allows you to add a loading state to the dynamically generated options. You can enable or disable the toggle button or dynamically configure the value by clicking on fx and entering a logical expression.

Component specific actions (CSA)

Following actions of the component can be controlled using the component specific actions(CSA):

Actions
Description
How To Access
clear()Clears the selected option.Employ a RunJS query (for e.g.,
await components.multiselect1.clear()) or trigger it using an event.
setVisibility()Sets the visibility of the component.Employ a RunJS query (for e.g.,
await components.multiselect1.setVisibility(false)) or trigger it using an event.
setLoading()Sets the loading state of the component.Employ a RunJS query (for e.g.,
await components.multiselect1.setLoading(true)) or trigger it using an event.
setDisable()Disables the component.Employ a RunJS query (for e.g.,
await components.multiselect1.setDisable(true)) or trigger it using an event.
selectOptions()Selects an option.Employ a RunJS query (for e.g.,
await components.multiselect1.selectOptions(['2','3'])) or trigger it using an event.
deselectOptions()Deselects all options.Employ a RunJS query (for e.g.,
await components.multiselect1.deselectOptions()) or trigger it using an event.

Note: The data type passed to CSAs like selectOptions() depends on how you configure the component. When adding options manually using the Add new option button, values must be strings (for example, components.multiselect1.selectOptions(['2', '3'])). When using dynamic options, supply values with the correct data types as they appear in your code logic.

For example, if the code is:

{{
[
{ label: 'option1', value: 1, disable: false, visible: true, default: true },
{ label: 'option2', value: 2, disable: false, visible: true },
{ label: 'option3', value: 3, disable: false, visible: true }
]
}}

You should pass numeric values in the selectOptions component-specific action since the value type is Number:

components.multiselect1.selectOptions([2, 3])
