Multi-select dropdown for chat bot

API and Webhooks
1

Description
I am working on a chat bot and trying to port a Slack command over to Zoom.
One of the evaluation criteria is being able to select multiple items from a list.
Pretty basic. However, based on the Zoom docs and various searches it seems
the drop down only supports a single selection. Please advise.

Hi @breynoldszoom ,

Thanks for reaching out about this. At the moment, you’re correct in that we only support a standard dropdown. However, this is a great suggestion to support multi-select.

If you’re so inclined, I’d recommend posting a feature request for this here, as it’s a great point and I think others would find it valuable as well: #feature-requests

Thanks,
Will

Conveniently, per the API at

the event field value is already an array

"selectedItems": [
      {
        "value": "lions"
      }
    ],

Thanks for pointing this out, @breynoldszoom!
