Selecting Multiple Values from a Dropdown List

Robin Falcone

Does anyone know if there's a way to enable uses to select multiple values from a dropdown menu? My only other option is creating several columns with checkboxes, one for each option.

 

Any tips are greatly appreciated!

+1 that would be really useful (almost essential)

JLC

Asolutely agreed that it would be very useful!

Cameron Blackmon

I agree!

Janet Oliver

Hi everyone, while there is not a way to select multiple values from a dropdown list, you could manually type in multiple values in a dropdown list cell and separate them with commas. 

 

This is on our enhancement request list and I'll add all your votes for it!

That's all we can ask, thank you Travis for keeping it on the radar!

This would be awesome. Much needed added to Smartsheet if it happens.

Hi Travis or other Smartsheet team members!

 

A year passed, can you please kindly update when the Selecting Multiple Values from a Dropdown List will be implementated?

Hi all,

Good news! It's coming!

Hi everyone, 

I'm pleased to announce that the Multi Select Dropdown project is in development.

The functionality Robert Meisch mentioned above (dynamically populate a drop down list from a selected range in a sheet?) is in early stages of research and we're hoping to have that out this year.

Thank you for the passion, and thanks for the patience.

Hope that helps!

Have a fantastic weekend!

Best,
