Hi @Suggy ,
The glide_list field parses values set as a comma-separated values.
There are several possible options:
-
Remove commas from the display name of the relevant records.
-
Set the glide_list field with the relevant sys_id of the target records.
-
Use a string field to populate the required value.
-
Use a custom separator for values with commas that is then processed using logic within the instance.
glide_list field parses values set as a comma-separated list. The display value from getDisplayValue() can be customized with a separator by setting the property glide.ui.glide_list.separator to a string.

Hi Sandeep,
I have already gone through this link - glide_list (e.g. watchlist) set with display values with a comma in it, are not parsed correctly - S...
I didnt get the 4th point. Can you elaborate how it works? (glide.ui.glide_list.separator)?
