Adding a select field

A select field enables editors to select from a specific set of choices.

To add a select field:

1. Search for and open the editorial content type that you want to edit, or create a new editorial content type. For details, see Creating an editorial content type.
2. From the Items list, select Select Field.
3. Under Main, in the Name field, enter a name for this field.
4. From the Count field, select one of the following:
   
   • One—Editor can select only one item.
   • Many—Editor can select more than one item.
   • Many (Sortable)—Editor can select more than one item, and then rearrange the selections into a desired order.
5. In the Choices field, add the choices available for this field.
6. (Optional) Under Advanced, do the following:
   
   1. In the Note field, enter a short explanatory note that appears in the content edit form.
   2. Toggle on Search Filter to index this field, making it usable as a query predicate. This allows you to filter results based on this field when querying through the CMS search, the GraphQL Content API (GCA), or any other API that relies on Dari queries.
   3. Toggle on Required if this is a required field.
