Number List Field

Overview

The Number List field accepts one or more numbers from a set of numbers defined by the administrator. The Number List field is most useful when consistent data entry based on a limited number of choices is important.

Data will be stored as a single number or as multiple numbers separated by a pipe character |.

Refer to our example template code in the app to see how to loop over the numbers and print them. Our example template will loop over all numbers in the list and print each one in an unordered list. This is a useful starting point for code customizations.

To create a list of text options instead of number options, consider using a Text List field instead.

Content Entry Settings

The Number List field offers several options for content entry depending on your needs.

Content entry options include:

Select Dropdown, to collect a single data point
Multiple Select List, to collect one or more data point. While this option is standard in all browsers, the usability is not ideal.
Checkboxes, to allow one or more data point to be selected by clicking on checkboxes (usually preferred over select lists).
Radio Buttons, to collect a single data point. Note that the N/A option is short for Not Applicable, which is the same as setting the field to blank or null.
