Posted on by 23
Hi,
 
I am trying to create a control,which should have the same behavior like choice column with  multi select and want to store the selected options in to data verse table column.
 
But i want to get the Choices dynamically from another data verse table (I will use the automation flow HTTP action to get the options from data verse table -Please specify If any other possible way to get the options ) and want to save the selected options in dataverse table column.
 
How to achieve this in Model driven app?
 
I am new to model driven apps,Please help me on this.

    I have made zero MD Apps, but in my 2 minute test of making a "Custom Page", it appears that you can have all of the functionality described using one.

    I am trying this in model driven app, do we have collections , App.OnStart in model driven apps?
     
    If yes , can you share any sample documentation /video/other link that will be helpful.

    Use a collection to get the values, and then use as the basis for the dropdown or combobox.
     
    Add your list as a Data Source.
     
    In the App.OnStart
      ClearCollect(colMyData, 'MyDataVerseList');
     
    For the combobox/dropdown items:
       colMyData
