I've created a dynamic filter on a simple choice field that sits on task.
In list/report conditions I'm not seeing any dynamic options, let alone this filter.
I've also tried setting the referenced table to sys_choice as well as using "String" as one user suggested. No joy.
I had no trouble adding dynamic filters to types that already had a dynamic option, such as user. However, I cannot make this work for anything that doesn't already have an "Is(Dynamic)" option.
Is anyone else able to make this work? What am I missing?
Thanks,
-Stephen

I think is Dynamic only works for reference fields.

Hi Stephen,
You need to create your own Dynamic Filter on the field you want.
Create a dynamic filter option
You can create for all the reference fields you have on your table and then it woul start showing in your filter. Following is an example for the Currency table. With this, wherever Currency is used a Reference Field, you would get this dynamic filter.
You can find all the Dynamic filters here - https://instancename.service-now.com/sys_filter_option_dynamic_list.do
Hope this helps. Mark the answer as correct/helpful based on impact.
Thanks

I have a similar inquiry but this doesn't apply to what I'm trying to do. I want to make the is(dynamic) operand available for a string field. so lets say I have a variable called vsc name. I want to be able to dynamically filter users via that vsc_name variable which happens to be a string (not a reference). Is that Possible?
