Support for Multi-Select Picklists

A multi-select picklist is a picklist from which the user can select multiple values. In Web Services On Demand, multi-select picklists are only accessible for the following record types:

  • Account

  • Activity

  • Contact

  • Custom Object 01

  • Custom Object 02

  • Custom Object 03

  • Lead

  • Opportunity

  • Service Request

For these record types, all standard and custom multi-select picklist fields are accessible. You can add, remove, replace or query selections in parent-level multi-select picklist fields, however child-level multi-select picklist fields are not supported.

Input and output values are language-independent code (LIC) delimited, but the multi-select picklist delimiter is always a semicolon regardless of locale for input and output: <LIC1>;<LIC2>.
