Dynamic Values

Business Background

You can easily set Dynamic Values for various elements, such as drop-down, multiselect, stepper, tab and many more.
There are two use cases for dynamic values:

Dynamically get Salesforce picklist values

Configure a dynamic sync from a picklist field in Salesforce.

Dynamically create dependencies between project elements

Affect an element by a Get in the project. In this case, you can create dependencies between elements.
For instance, you can search for a specific account, and only the selected account’s contact list will be shown in a drop-down list.

Note:

For every Dynamic value usage, Titan automatically creates a picklist Get that will be triggered when the page loads.
A different picklist Get will be created per object.
In other words, one picklist Get will hold all Dynamic values for the same object.
