Reference Field Reference

fields.multiSelect()

Multi-select field storing a plain array of selected values (distinct from select with multiSelect true).

Multiple-choice selection. Maps to editor { name: 'str-multi-select', type: 'multi-select' }.

Distinct from fields.select({ multiSelect: true }): a multi-select combo-box stores { value, name } objects, whereas this editor stores a plain array of the selected value strings.

Example

TypeScript
fields.multiSelect({
  label: 'Tags',
  options: [
    { name: 'News', value: 'news' },
    { name: 'Product', value: 'product' },
  ] as const,
})
// _output: ('news' | 'product')[]
