Is there a way to add select item categories to CMS select?

I’m using CMS select for a form select UI, and the CMS select list is quite long. I was wondering if it would be possible to categorize them or to add text labels?

I’m thinking the combine pre-categorized lists into one, then set that one as the source for the CMS select? Would that be possible?

Or just a better way to organize the list?

Essentially I’m trying to have a filterable checkbox select list with search functionality and I want the filtered items to show in the select field, rather than the entire CMS.

Thanks in advance for any insight!

Site is Leen Integrations | Unified API for Security Data

The select form is triggered by the “Request” integration green button

Read only

Hey @Drcontempo! An option to be able to filter the list inside the select could be using a Combobox

Another option that comes to mind is nesting the integrations within the categories and then using the nested list to populate the Select. However, I have not tested this setup so I am not sure if this is even possible :thinking:

Could you record a quick video on the desired functionality? I may be able to think of something else

Ooo ok thanks, I didn’t know this solution was available. I have implemented it successfully but have a question: is multi select possible with this? @Support-Luis

Here’s a video: Filterable CMS select | Loom

@Support-Luis Just wanted to bump this up! :slightly_smiling_face:

Hey @Drcontempo!

The layout from the read-only is different than the one depicted in the video, I’d just like to confirm. This is the modal we are working on right?

Also to confirm, the category should first filter the list of integrations based on selection and we should be able to select multiple integrations from said list?

If so, this seems very similar to this solution from another thread, minues the multi-select, Difficulties with implementing CMS Select & Filter - #6 by Support-Luis

I can help modifying the code to fit your setup if needed, I only require that the categories are added to the elements.

Yes that’s the correct modal @Support-Luis. And yes, the category should first filter the list of integrations based on selection, and then we would want to be able to select multiple integrations from said filtered list.

The example you provided is in fact, what I want to achieve, but with multi-select! I also added the category as a dynamic attribute (hope I did that correctly)

Here’s the updated read only

Live page

To initiate the form on the live page, just type “ddd” in the search input, then click the “Request” button.

In the read only, the modal pop up is on the “integrations test” page, at the bottom of the navigator in the main-wrapper

In order for this form category select to work, does this mean that the modal needs to have its own instance of the CMS list inside the form wrapper? (As opposed to being able to filter and populate from the CMS list on the page “behind” the modal?)

My gut tells me yes…

Thanks again for your help!

Hey @Drcontempo!

I think there has been a mix up on the setup… I’ll send you a DM to schedule a quick call and we can go over this :muscle:

Ok thank you!
