How To Create A Custom String List Field With Option To Add Multiple Values ( All New & Validated )

Hi,

I would like to create a field that accepts one or more strings to build a list of values.

Essentially like a multiple choice tag or user field, but just with strings that are not intended to be used for either of those purposes.

This is not a matter of splitting a normal text field, or using a drop-down select box or anything.

I wish to have a string entry box, then when the user has finished entering that string entry it provides the option to add another string entry.

Best

Eliot

Hi @Influential Eliot 

Ootb there is no such option.

You have to look at 3rd party marketplace apps and see if there are apps that provide other type of custom field, have a field like this.
