Hey guys,

I want to have a dropdown of available dog breeds, but I don’t think I’ll be able to list ALL dog breeds in a sheet. To save my users time, I think it makes sense to have the most common types as a dropdown but allow them to input their own breed if I’ve missed it.

Is this possible?

Yes, add a row with the new option

You can have a text entry component and a choice component both point to the same column. The last one that’s filled will take priority.
