Adding a column of select type via the Coda API

1

Hi,
I’ve been using the API to query docs, tables, rows and columns - works well :smile:

However, I having getting or setting column attributes.

In particular, I like to be able to retrieve the set of valid values for columns that are of the select type. Further, I’d like to be able to define a new select column with a fixed set of values.

Does the API give us access to the set of valid values for each select field?
Can the API create new columns?

Thanks
Geoff

No and no sadly.

Although if you have a pre-existing select type field that references another table in the document you could use the api to add/delete rows from that source table which would change the user selectable values

Can you tell us more about your workflow and what your trying to accomplish? Maybe we can find you some more workarounds.
