Remove a selected option from multi select optionset

Posted on by Amrita P

Hello Experts,

I have a requirement where I need to clear a specific option which is already selected on the record from a multi select optionset using javaScript. Unfortunately I cannot use formContext.getAttribute("new_attribute").setValue(null) because it will clear all the selected values but I need to deselect few options.

Please help me to implement the requirement.

Thanks in advance

You will need to use getValue to get the current values as an array, remove the specific option from that array, then pass the updated array back via setValue. This link gives some sample code

Hi Amrita,

> You can get all option value with:

formContext.getAttribute("new_attribute").getOptions();

> You can get a specific option value with:

var value = formContext.getAttribute("new_attribute").getOptions()[i].value;

> You can remove a specific option by:

formContext.getControl("new_attribute").removeOption(value);

> You can add it back by:

formContext.getControl("new_attribute").addOption({ value:value, text:'Text you want'});
