Radio ​

A radio group lets users choose one value from a short visible list.

Radio groups are useful for small exclusive choices such as type, rating, visibility, priority, approval route, or yes/no options where all choices should be visible. They are input components, so they read from and save to one field on the record.

When to Use It ​

Use radio buttons when there are only a few options and users benefit from seeing them all at once.

Radio buttons are clearer than a dropdown for important choices with short labels. If there are many options, use Select or Autocomplete.

What Can Be Configured ​

Options ​

The available choices and their labels can be defined for the project. Radio options should be mutually exclusive and easy to compare.

Layout ​

Options can be displayed in a row for compact choices or stacked vertically when labels are longer. The group label should make the question clear.

Stored Value ​

The saved value can be treated as text or as a number, depending on how the project uses the choice for reporting or workflow rules.

Conditional Display ​

The radio group can be shown only when that decision is relevant to the current record.
