<![CDATA[Link SQL dropdown with other table?]]>Is there a built in SQL Feature for this or do we need to use an API function?

Example:

  • I have 1 table with items, 1 column have name.
  • Another table have multi-dropdown ["name1","name2"]

It would be convenient if we could populate the multi-dropdown with values from the other table (Value picker), is that possible?

Thanks, I was using the visual select and was hoping this was implemented. Is it in the documentation? I couldn't find anything.

var settings = {
    "url": "https://xxxxxxxxxx.appdrag.site/api/test",
    "data": {
        "AD_PageNbr" : "1",
        "AD_PageSize" : "500"
    },
    "method": "POST",
    "async": true,
    "crossDomain": true,
    "processData": true
};
$.ajax(settings).done(function (response) {
    console.log(response); // TODO: Do something with the result
});

if you use other kind of cloud functions you have to implement the offset yourself

Thank you, I'll try that.

Do you have any tips on how to split sql results into multiple pages?
