I need to be able to do multiple selections and save the Fill-In item. what do not want is the Fill-In to be a new choice item on the dropdown.

My Dropdown Menu the choices should stay static.

Here is how it is currently setup:

I have the code for this item:

I have the My Dropdown Menu set to allow multiple selections:

when I test it I get this error:

Current Code:
If(DataCardValue4.Selected.Value="Other, please give your own value", {
'@odata.type': "#Microsoft.Azure.Connectors.SharePoint.SPListExpandedReference",
Id: 0,
Value: DataCardValue5.Text
},DataCardValue4.Selected)

I have it pointed to a Hidden text box (DataCardValue5), that will populate with the fill in answer when they select the "Other, please give your own value", however this works ONLY if the column (DataCardValue4), is set to Drop-Down Menu. And the value gets added to the Drop-Down, which I do not want to have happen.

and more than 1 selection for the Choices to be chosen also, seems to only like 1 from dropdown and then the "other" but not anything else. can choose 2 or 3 and the other.

Any ideas on how to achieve this?

@v-bofeng-msft
I get an error when I do the above:

Error:
Expecting a Record value?

for the update code:
If(DataCardValue4.Selected.Value="Other, please give your own value", { '@odata.type': "#Microsoft.Azure.Connectors.SharePoint.SPListExpandedReference", Id: 0, Value: DataCardValue5.Text },DataCardValue4.Selected)

If I add the DataCardValue4.SelectedItems same error:
also tried your suggestion:( just that, I removed the code above and just placed:

Same Error:
DataCardValue4.SelectedItems

Any ideas why the Expected Record error?

what needs to changed?
