    Hello Emid, 

    You can define option set by using InsertOptionValueRequest in custom workflow assembly code. 

    please refer the links: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/microsoft.xrm.sdk.messages.insertoptionvaluerequest?view=dynamics-general-ce-9

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/developer/data-platform/org-service/metadata-option-sets

    Hopefully you'll able to map the business requirements. 

    Please let me know if you have questions. 

    Thanks,

    Adnan

    Hi Pani,

    Maybe you can try to use power automate to add new value to option sets, which may be easier.

    We will use the Common Data Service (Current Environment) connector and the "InsertOptionValue" Perform Unbound action to achieve this.

    Add new values to CDS Option Sets using Power Automate (bythedevs.com)

    For example, I have an local option set named ‘’

    1.Go Power Automate(https://us.flow.microsoft.com/en-us/ ) to create an instant vflow.

    2.Trigger- Manual:

    3.Action- Perform an unbound action using the Common Data Service (current environment).

    using following json:

    {
      "LocalizedLabels": [
        {
          "Label": "@{triggerBody()['text']}",
          "LanguageCode": 1033,
          "IsManaged": false,
          "HasChanged": null
        }
      ],
    
      "UserLocalizedLabel": {
        "Label": "@{triggerBody()['text']}",
        "LanguageCode": 1033,
        "IsManaged": false,
        "HasChanged": null
      }
    }

    Test:

    (1)Run the flow.

    (2)Result:

    Note: the option sets i test is global, if your option sets is local, you can refer following screenshot:

    Filling AttributeLogicalName and EntityLogicalName, other setting is same.
