After checking I was not able to put value/options on the Select Type of Request Variable that's why there is no option appearing when I am clicking the dropdown box.

Hi @EdmarM 

Could you please confirm whether the choices have been added for this field?
If yes, please check whether the choices are active and the ‘Inactive’ field is set to false
If this information proves useful, kindly mark it as helpful or accepted solution.

Thanks,
BK

Hi @EdmarM ,

Looking at the screenshot, I would first verify the configuration of the request_type field itself. This generally points to an issue with the field's choice configuration.
Please check whether active choices exist for request_type, whether it is a dependent choice field, and whether the choices are configured on the correct table.
