Interactive Automation Scripts – Multiple Item Selection

Solved1.56K views7th February 2023IAS interactive automation script multiple items multiple select

Guilherme Gaspar [SLC] [DevOps Advocate]539 31st August 2020 0 Comments

When working on an interactive automation script, often we want the user to select multiple items from a dropdown list or a checkbox list, but these require the user to click on each individual item to select them. Is there a way, or different method, to select multiple items at once, similar to CTRL or SHIFT selection on file explorer, for example?

If I'm not mistaken there is a new capability coming up in one of the next releases to support something like this.  The early demo's I have seen show a tree view selection control, where a user can select multiple items.  Here's a screen cap from that early demo.  Will this meet your requirements?  Note that this is probably supported in the HMTL5 version of the interactive dialog, not the Cube version of it.

Thanks for the reply. I have implemented already a tree/checkbox style list, where I can select each item individually, and then move on to the next step with a list of all the selected/checked items. My question is about the “how” are the items selected. If I have a tree with many items, I would prefer to “shift-click” them.

Hi Guilherme, I believe a proper solution for you is to well-define your sub categories. With the above presented feature by Ben, you will be able to select a sub group with a single click. (Resulting in multiple base items being selected)

Guilherme Gaspar [SLC] [DevOps Advocate] commented 31st August 2020

Hey Thijs! Yes, I get it, but unfortunately “categorization” is not viable in my use-case.
