It would be amazing if monday.com would provide the option to have a dropdown column with choices based on selections made in a selected Connect Board column. the Dropdown could either be its own dedicated column type, which would allow you to choose which Connect Board column’s selections it would be based on, or it could be a toggle option ion a Connect Board column, that would allow the user to select the potential connections in standard Connect Board popup, while then being able to show a dropdown menu that would allow the user to select one of those connected items as the value for the field.
This concept can even be taken further: Instead of only providing a text based value based on the dropdown selection, the selection could actually limit which of the connections is actually to be considered “connected” for that item. In other words, in the standard Connect Column popup, you would be selected potential connections, and in the Dropdown, the user would select the actual connection.
Even further: Allow subitems to have a Connected Dropdown column based on a parent item’s connect column! One can then select, using the Dropdown, which of the parent’s multiple connected items the subitem would be connected to.
I have a few other scenarios that I can think of for this idea, but the one above should give you all enough info to allow you to see how useful this would be - especially in Workforms!
