Hi @Sreenadh ,

cascading select list allow you to create a structure between first and second value.

For example :

if user select 1 as first value then values A,B,C can be selected as second value. Values D,E are associated to value 2.

- 1

-- A

-- B

-- C

- 2

-- D

-- E

Hope this helps,

Fabio

Hi,

Here what the documentation state:

Cascading select fields allow people to narrow their selection list by branching select fields into parents and children options. People select an option from the parent dropdown list and are presented with that options sub-list to select from. Cascading select fields help categorize options in a select list and reduce the number of choices needed to complete the field correctly.

Example : you can have an cascading field called City, the first option will be the Country (e.g USA) then the country in the USA (e.g Boston)
