Custom field - list

[Kani999]

Hello,

I've run into a situation where I would like to define a custom field as a list of strings. There is a possibility only for a selection, which does not fulfill my needs because I don't know the pre-defined values for it.
With currently defined CF I cannot implement it.

I would like to suggest adding the CF of type List.

As a workaround for now, I'd suggest you use a text field containing a comma-separated list of values. If the values themselves need to include comma, then either parse the line as a CSV row, or use a different separator.

Yes, that's exactly what I'm doing right now. Using a separator and then parsing it in the scripts.

You can just use the JSON type to store a list of strings.

That's true, but I believe that you are not able to filter records through the WEB UI via the JSON field.

I've got a similar situation where it is in a json field and would like to have a json path like filter on the column in the gui so I can filter what is shown on the gui.

Some think like this?
