How to implement a Field Decorator that opens a Modal to select and set a record value in UI Builder

[ayanshnamde]

I am working on a requirement in UI Builder and looking for the best way to implement a specific interaction.

Requirement:

1. I have a form with a field (Type: Number or String).

2. I need to add a Field Decorator (icon) next to this field.

3. When a user clicks this decorator, a Modal should open.

4. Inside that Modal, a List of Records should be displayed.

5. When a user clicks/selects a specific record from that list, the Modal should close, and that Record Number should automatically populate back into the original field on the form.

Questions:

• Is this achievable using standard UI Builder components and events?

• What is the best way to pass the selected value from the Modal back to the main form field?

• Could someone guide me on the high-level steps (Events, Client Scripts, or Data Resources) needed to link the Modal selection to the field value?

I would appreciate any examples or documentation links related to this logic.

Thanks in advance!
