Is there a way to assign picklist entries to a UI-only picklist field in a UI only model from a global picklist? In my case I just have a simple UI-only picklist field that needs to have all the 50 states as its picklist values. Instead of typing in all the 50 states, I was wondering if I could connect it to an already existing global picklist field. I see that it could be populated by “Rows in a model” or “Javascript snippet” but how do I put that to use here?

Hi Ashwat,
Salesforce does not give direct access to global picklist value sets. You can certainly use picklist fileds that use a global picklist value set, but I don’t think that’s what you’re after.

Please give this a try. I pulled in a model (Contact) with a field (Salutation) that has a pick list that I want to use. I am creating a Task and I add a UI Only field that is of type Pick List. I add a custom field render and pull the pick list entries from the Salutation field and use them with the UI Only field.
Thanks,
Bill
New {{Model.label}} {{Model.labelPlural}} var params = arguments[0], value = arguments[1]; $ = skuid.$;console.log(params.metadata.picklistEntries);
var con=skuid.model.map().Contact;
console.log(‘Contact’);
console.log(con.fields[0].picklistEntries);
// Get the Running User’s Profile Name from a ‘RunningUser’ model:
if (params.mode == ‘edit’) {
params.metadata.picklistEntries=con.fields[0].picklistEntries;
// pick.push(con.fields[0].picklistEntries);
}
// Run the standard picklist renderer for the given mode
skuid.ui.fieldRenderers[params.metadata.displaytype]params.mode;
+8worked super smooth Bill. Thanks. Now just need to get it doing dependencies ;). Thanks again, seriously!
