I would like to maintain a project as a database to dyanmically populate the options of a dropdown/multiple choice custom field.
Does anyone know if this can be done, or if theres an easier way to manage the options in such custom fields? Thanks!
Hi @FenwayJohnny , I’m not sure I entirely understand your question or use-case, but make.com is capable of updating the values/options of custom fields.
Hey @Richard_Sather - hmm ok. I’ll check that out!
My use case is such that I want to allow for a database of subcontractors to be the options in a dropdown menu so that I can use as a filter.
The list of subcontractors is always growing, so I don’t want to have to manually add them to a list of options in the custom field edit screen every time.
Thinking that it would be cool for a custom field to reference a list of tasks in a project for its list.
Hope that makes sense.
Understood, I had a feeling that is what you were suggesting! And I totally agree this would be very useful, something I hope will be coming soon to Asana. Feel free to add your vote and voice to my post here:
