            Let users choose multiple options in a picklist format.

            Required Editions

            Configure the Multi-Select Picklist Component

            Attribute Description
            API Name

            The API name of the component.

            An API name can include underscores and alphanumeric characters without spaces. It must begin with a letter and can’t end with an underscore. It also can’t have two consecutive underscores.
            Choice

            Add at least one choice, record choice set, or picklist choice set to this component. Available only when you add a choice component to the screen component. In all screen components except Display Text components, the choice's value is used at runtime.

            Component Type

            Modify a choice component type.

            If the user can select only one option, these component types become available:

            • Picklist
            • Radio Buttons

            If the user can select multiple options, these component types become available:

            • Checkbox Group
            • Multi-select Picklist
            Data Type Only Text choices are supported for this component.
            Default Value Pre-selected choice for the component. If the associated screen isn’t executed or the conditions for component visibility aren’t met, the stored value of the component is null.
            Disabled

            If set to true, the user can’t modify the value. The default value is false.

            This attribute accepts a resource with a Boolean value.
            Label The text that appears with the screen component that tells the running user how to use it.
            Let Users Select Multiple Options Specifies whether the user can choose only one option or multiple options. When you select Yes for Let Users Select Multiple Options, Data Type is automatically set to Text, and non-text Choice resources are cleared from the component configuration.
            Provide Help Give your users more context with this screen component. The text you enter is available in an info bubble next to the component.
            Require Requires users to select a value before they can move to the next screen.

            Set the Component Visibility

            Specify the logic that determines when the flow displays the component.

            Option Description
            When to Display Component

            Configure when the component is displayed by using conditional logic.

            You can set the components to:

            Always
            Always display the component.
            When all conditions are met (AND)
            Display the component when all of the conditions that you define are met. Define at least one condition.
            When any condition is met (OR)
            Display the component when at least one of the conditions that you define is met. Define at least one condition.
            When custom conditional logic is met
            Display the component when the condition logic that you define is met. Define at least one condition and specify condition logic.

            Specify the Behavior of Values on Revisited Screens

            Specify what this component does when a user enters a value, navigates to a previous screen, and then returns to the screen with this component.

            Option Description
            Use values from when the user last visited this screen The component retains the values that the user specified and doesn’t update the values to reflect changes made on previous screens.
            Refresh inputs to incorporate changes elsewhere in the flow

            The component updates the user-specified values to reflect changes made on previous screens.

            If you pause and then resume the flow, the flow retains user-specified values only in Checkbox, Checkbox Group, Currency, Long Text Area, Multi-Select Picklist, Number, Password, Picklist, Radio Buttons, and Text components.

            Considerations

            • Rich text isn’t supported in the Multi-Select Picklist component.
            • The Multi-Select Picklist component doesn't show text between the < and > characters.
