Hi Kathryn,
That sounds weird!
Can you maybe share some screenshots? (Delete/replace any confidential/sensitive information before sharing) That would make it easier to help. (share too, andree@getdone.se)
Have a fantastic week!

I've attached a screenshot of the workflow as well as the list of values for the column. It seems as if the issue is being caused by the length of each line. As you'll see in the workflow is easily shows items with just the category and no description. Are you aware of any limitation on number of characters?

Isn't it possible to scroll down?
Can you try to add empty rows between the selections?
Any change?
Best,
Andrée

I tried adding a space between line with no change. The workflow list won't scroll past where I have it and there are items missing. If I remove the descriptions all of the items will show up in the workflow list. I'm pretty confident this is due to some character limitation.

I've never heard of a character limitation in Dropdown lists. You can have up to 5000 options.
How many characters do you have? There is a limitation in cells at 4000 characters.
I'd be happy to take a look and see if I can notice anything!
Can you maybe share the sheet(s)? (Delete/replace any confidential/sensitive information before sharing) That would make it easier to help. (share too, andree@getdone.se)
