Is it possible to make the multidropdown compatible? Or do I just have to except that it isn’t

My vision is that when someone clicks the asign button the value of the multiselect dropdown (which is the people that the tasks belongs to) ads to the data base. But for some reason the value of the multiselect dropdown isn’t compatible. Do you know if there is a way to change that

What is the type of the dropdown? And what is the type of the field you’re trying to add the value to? (they need to be the same type).

The dropdown value is a Text.

So you can only set that value on a Text field.

I’m not sure what Condition you’re talking about either?

Or are you just talking about setting the Who-task-belong-to field in your screenshot?

In which case, you need to use Add List (not Add) to add a list to a list.
