New Data Type - Multi Enumeration

9

Hi,

 

I think the one data type really missing from the domain model is a Multi Enumeration.

I understand the proper solution is too create it as a reference to an entity list however this being low code, it would be great if Mendix generate all of this automatically for you in the db in the background.

 

Sometimes I want to have a dropdown with just options A, B or C that can be selected. And it's a lot of overhead to generate the logic to make this work, and doing visibility on paragraphs becomes a pain.

 

Additionally, when I do API calls we sometimes get responses like :

{

    "category": ["pop", "rock", "classic"]

}

And having that then auto map to the multi enum would be really useful.

 

Thanks,

Adam

That is great idea, but what we actually miss is arrays in Mendix and a lot of things will be much easier.
