Notif on a choice component

Ask for Help
1

Hi everyone,

I’m trying to trigger a real notification (Show Notification / toast) after a user changes a Choice component value in Glide.

The issue:

  • a Choice updates the column correctly
  • but I can’t find a native “on change” action/workflow for the Choice itself

I’m specifically looking for:

  • an in-app notification
  • immediately after the selection
  • without adding an extra confirmation button
  • and not just showing/hiding a text component

Have any of you found a clean Glide-native workaround for this?

Thanks!

Two options that I can think of:

  • Use a List Collection instead of a Choice component, and configure it to behave like a choice component. Because it’s a collection, you can configure an Item Click action/workflow.
  • Try experimenting with the Custom AI component.

Personally, I would use option 1.

Another possible approach is to use a Rich Text component as a toast, combined with CSS to automatically hide it after a few seconds (CSS is only available on paid plans).
