How to Use Dependent Picklists in Noca Apps
How to Use Dependent Picklists in Noca Apps
Link one picklist to another so it only shows the right options
A dependent picklist changes its options based on what someone picked in another field. This guide uses one example: a country picklist and a state picklist, where choosing the United States shows US states and choosing Canada shows Canadian provinces. You set it up with a single prompt, no code. You can also pull picklist values from Salesforce, HubSpot, SAP, NetSuite, and other systems through Events.
Watch & Learn
Follow these steps to set up a dependent picklist:
Steps:
1
Start with your two picklists
- Open your app with a country picklist and a state picklist
- Right now each one searches its full list on its own
2
See why you need a dependent picklist
- Pick Canada in the country field
- The state field still shows all 50 US states, so the two aren’t linked yet
3
Ask the builder to link them
- In the prompt box, describe the rule you want
- For example: make the picklists dependent, if the country is United States show US states, if it is Canada show Canadian provinces
- Click go and let the build finish
4
Pick the United States and check the state list
- Choose United States in the country field
- The state list now shows only US states
5
Pick Canada and check the province list
- Choose Canada in the country field
- The same field now shows Canadian provinces instead
