Multi-select

Store multiple selected values in Budibase DB

Use a multi-select column when a field should allow more than one value from a fixed list.

Create a multi-select column

  1. Open the table
  2. Click Create column
  3. Set the type to Multi-select
  4. Add the allowed options
  5. Save the column

Use multi-select columns

Multi-select columns work well with the Multi-select picker in forms.

Selected values appear as individual pills in tables and forms.

Filtering

Use array-based filters when you need to match against multi-select values:

  • Contains
  • Does not contain
  • Has any

Use Contains when all selected comparison values must be present.

Use Has any when only one matching value is required.

Notes

  • Multi-select columns are not convertible to other types
  • They can still hold a single value or no value at all
