Pass a element to a dropdown on another page

I’m looking to pass a company name from one page to another (navigation workflow) and have it show up in the dropdown (option set).

Currently I’m using a URL to pass the key/value pair, and I can see it there, but I can’t figure how to get the value into the dropdown as the selected item.

Thoughts??? Much appreciated.

Since you have already down the first bit, I will skip that and just show pictures
Heres the data and option set

Here’s what you have already done (kinda)::

Now on the next page create a RG and set the data type as text.

Set the data source to Get an Option >> Select the option (in my case its the Tabs) >> ::each item’s display

::plus item >> Do a search for company (with constraint; in my case since I set the URL to evaluate to company name I’ll use that here) >> Set constraint to “Name” = Get Data from URL (my URL parameter is company wth data type text. Yours may be different)

::first item’s >> ::Name

You can hide the repeat group in a popup that will never show. I like to name my popup hiddenVARs (I picked this up from AirDev’s professional bootcamp)

Hope this is not too much?

Edit:: Forgot to add the final result, lol

Now set the dynamic options for the dropdown to reference the RG’s list of texts and voila!!

Thanks so much. Will see if this works for me. Appreciate you taking the time!
