Hello,

I populate the list collector  from a custom table.

There is two particular fields : application and AD Group.
Currently , the list collector show the application (MU****IS) but I want to show the AD group

Out of the box the list collector will only show field which is marked as Display=true.

you can have only 1 field which is marked Display=true

Solution

1) create a custom field of type string and store the concatenated value of both the fields into this

2) make this newly created field as Display=true in dictionary

Hello @Clement Dos San 

 

You can add Variable attributes to list collector

 

ref_auto_completer=AJAXTableCompleter,ref_ac_columns=<name of column1>; <name of column2>,ref_ac_columns_search=true

 

<name of column1> => put column name you want to display in list collector

@Vishal Birajdar   I saw an dozen of times this solution with this attribute but it does not work with list collectors.
@Shruti  it works !

@Ankur Bawiskar you're right. It only works with one field at the time. The system automaticaly disable the display of the former field.

Thank you all !!
