Drop Down List

Hi,
  I need to know about how can we make dependent drop down lists in custom data set form? For Example if i select province from one drop down, it shows all the districts present in that specific province in another drop down. Also, How can we get values from DataBase to show in our forms. For example just like by selecting a province, get the names of district from database to show in drop down list.

Thank You!

Hi Rabia,

unfortunately there is no built-in feature for that at the moment. You will need some javascript coding in a custom form to achieve it at the moment.

You can use the organisationUnit API to fetch the children in the hierarchy:
