Select multiple objects in a List-type control

[siminx]

Hi, How can I select multiple objects in a List-type control at once and assign values to them?

Looking forward to your help.

Highlight the value you want to change. Hold the CTRL key down and drag however many records you want to change.

Then double click in one of them, make the change, and click the checkmark.

It will change all the highlighted options.

Thank you very much for your response. What I would like to ask is about the "list" type field (which is a field where multiple values of a reference type can be selected).

A List field is meant to select multiple records to be linked within the field. It is not meant to be interactive - where you make changes to the records. If you are needing to make changes as part of the flow, then you can cycle through them in the Flow and make changes. But changing them within the list field isn't really what that is for.

Hi @siminx ,

not possible directly

you may have to create a UI macro which opens as a list collect (slush bucket) which let's you select multiple options then you can pass those values to the list field(but hard to implement considering there isn't much documentation on Jelly)

or you can use client script in the browser console to set the values( I usually use it, I gather the sysids as comma separated and open the browser console and use g_form.setValue()) but only servicenow personnel would aware of this

or you can have a separate field on which you can store comma separated sysids and have a on change client script on that field and populate the list ( this not practical as user would not be having any idea what sysid is) 

Please mark my answer as helpful/correct if it resolves your query.
