Dynamic Value List from Import Text Input in ShapeDiver?

Grasshopper ShapeDiver
1

Hi! I’m using a Value List component in Grasshopper to drive some options, but once uploaded to ShapeDiver, the list becomes fixed. Since I’m using Grasshopper for an online shop, I’d like to avoid re-uploading the script every time I need to add new options or links to external data sources.

Is there a way to create a dynamic Value List—maybe by parsing a JSON string from a Text Input in the ShapeDiver editor—so I can update it directly without touching the Grasshopper file?

Thanks!

This is already possible in the App Builder, but as a beta version where you will need to manipulate some JSON objects to create custom parameters. We will add specific components in the near future, but in the meanwhile you can check this tutorial definition and ask your questions here if something is unclear.
