Flow reference: Triggers

Dropdown Select

Runs when a user picks a dropdown option.

When and how to use it

Connect the input from the preceding step on the path that should perform this operation.

Fill the fields with data available in the trigger's context.

Connect the needed outputs; an unconnected path cannot run later blocks.

Configuration fields

This internal identifier must match the corresponding message component or form exactly, including case. It is different from its visible label.

Input: Text.

Format example, not a ready value for your server: role_menu.

Default: menu.

Outputs and next steps

out: Continue to the next step.

Test and troubleshoot

Invoke the correct trigger with simple inputs and verify the expected effect. Confirm variables exist on this path. A preview alone does not verify Discord delivery.

Save, validate and publish. Perform one real test and read the first relevant log error. [Testing](/docs/flow-testing) · [Variables](/docs/flow-variables) · [Permissions](/docs/flow-permissions).
