Step 2: Configure the Picklist Component
When we edit the screen component, we can see that the picklist component requires a choice value. If we were not using a picklist value set, we could define these values manually.
However, since we want the picklist values in this component to match those defined in the “Type“ field on the account object we’ll be using picklist choice sets here.
Step 3: Create a Picklist Choice Set
In order to use a picklist choice set, we first have to create it. Follow these steps:
1. Create a New Choice Resource:
Navigate to the option to create a new choice resource.
2. Select Resource Type:
3. Configure the Picklist Choice Set
- Select the object and provide an API Name for the resource.
- Specify whether the picklist is a single/multi-select picklist.
- Choose the name of the picklist from which you want to use the values and specify a sort order if necessary.
Once you’re happy that this has been setup correctly you can press “Done”. Your newly created choice resource will be automatically populated in the choice field.
Once this has been setup correctly, you can test that this is working by saving and debugging your flow!
