Creatin new database entries from multidropdown

[debbie]

Hi everyone, I’m trying to create multiple database entries based on selections in a dropdown list (which uses dynamic data). Here’s what I’ve got:

This is the dropdown:

Here is the workflow kicked off by clicking the button:

Here’s the backend workflow:

The problem here with the last field need:first item is that it creates all the records using only the “need” form the first items selected in the multidropdown (but the number of record it creates is based on the number of items I selected in the multidropdown). So it seems to be the need:first item that’s wrong, but I’m not sure what to change it to…

Can someone help me with this?
Many thanks! Debbie

You can make the following updates:

1. In your backend workflow uncheck “is a list/array” for need;
2. Change problem to just need in your “Create a new Problem…” step; and
3. Change need in “Schedule API … on a list” from “Multidropdown Choose one …” to "this need_and_competition.
