Can't change a multi-select

but does it run successfully? I think that is just an issue with the typescript not knowing how to handle it. When you hover over it, the popup will have an option for ‘Quick Fix’ that adds // @ts-ignore to remove the warning.

I added the quick fix, but running the script spits out a massive error message, beginning with:

Error: Error: <root>.records.0.0.id must be an objectId

That leads me to think that something else is amiss. I’ll do a more thorough troubleshooting pass later and report back with any relevant info.

Hi @Justin_Barrett - not sure if this helps you, but this works for me:

let table = base.getTable("Table 1");

let queryResult = await table.selectRecordsAsync();

for (let record of queryResult.records) {
    let value = record.getCellValue("Value");
    await table.updateRecordAsync(record, {
        "Multi-select": [{name: value}]
    })    
} 

In my example, I’m trying to update the multi-select with the value in the Value field:

I get an error in the code editor on {name:value} but the code still runs and works.

JB

let table = base.getTable("Table 1");

let queryResult = await table.selectRecordsAsync();

for (let record of queryResult.records) {
    let value = record.getCellValue("Value");
    await table.updateRecordAsync(record, {
        "Multi-select": [{name: value}]
    })    
} 

Thanks. It helps at least to know that the flagging of that code isn’t an isolated case. I’ll ignore it and look elsewhere for the cause of the error message.

Found the source of the error. In the prototype version of the block, the Table.createRecordAsync method returned an array, but this was switched to return a string in the beta. Once I corrected how I was processing the returned data, everything worked.
