Pickers

Selecting values from a range of options

All pickers are Form components that cover a range of data types.

In addition, each picker can perform an Action when an item is selected through the On Change event.

This page will summarise the five available pickers within Budibase.

Options and Multi-select pickers

There are three available data sources for dropdown lists in Budibase.

The Options Picker only allows the user to select a single item, whereas the Multi-select Picker allows a user to select many.

Relationship picker

The Relationship picker should always be used to handle Relationship fields.

Date picker

The Date Picker allows a user to select a Date/Time from a pop-up calendar.

User Field

A special field type that only works with the User data type. If the Allow multiple users is selected, then it will automatically allow multiple selections, otherwise only one user can be chosen.

It can also be optionally searched on the users email address.

To further refine the list of users displayed in the picker, you can use the following settings:

  • Groups: Filter the list to users belonging to specific User Groups. This feature requires a Business plan or higher.
  • Workspace role: Filter the list to users with a specific workspace role. This option is available when the Workspace users toggle is enabled.
