string (from list)

Allows admins to choose a setting from a list of items that each correspond to a string. When choosing this value type, additional attributes become available. Enter a comma-separated list of titles and a comma-separated list of corresponding string values.

Note, the default value must be selected from the list of values (enum) rather than from the list of titles (enum_titles).

A manifest choice for a fictional app called Disk Manager includes the following:

"primaryServer": {
	"title": "Primary Server",
	"description": "Choose Disk Manager’s primary working server.",
	"default": "server3.mooserat.com",
	"property_order": 30,
	"type": "string",
	"options": {
		"enum_titles": ["North Server", "South Server", "East Server", "West Server"],
		"infoText": ""
	},
	"enum": ["server0.mooserat.com", "server1.mooserat.com", "server2.mooserat.com", "server3.mooserat.com"],
	"links": [
		{
			"rel": "Server Status",
			"href": "https://status.mooserat.com"
		}
	]
}
