Need help with creating a category where users can create a category

Hello no coders
please I need help with creating a category where users can create a category if one does not exist.

Hello @jerryweb669

Thank you for reaching out.

It depends on where would you like your users to add categories to. For example: if a user is adding a product to a database and wants to select a category for that product and there is no available category, the user can click on “Add category” button, and the user will add a new category. The workflows to the button should be as follows: Create a new thing > Category > Reset relevant inputs. Please also add an input element where you would write the name of the category

Also, you can set a state to when the input category’s value is changed.


Please make sure that you add a conditional to “only when” field a search for a category that does not contain the value of Input’s element so that the same category is not added twice. You can also add a dropdown so when the categories are created, they are added to the dropdown automatically.

Please let me know if you have any other questions.

Have a nice day :slight_smile:

Thank you krill
please how do I program it on the database?

These are some of the possible database settings you can have, but again it entirely depends on your use case.
