Hi,

Question,

There is a dropdown - value list - component.
Containing Textual names to choose - and numbers as output.

Challenge;
I would like to retrieve the choosen ‘Textual Name’ of the value list.

Any suggestions?

e.g.
if Grass is selected, I would also like to output -->
1
and
grass

Thanks,
