Extract dynamic values as drop-down in AEM Content Fragment Model

Question

Reqiurement:I wanted to add a dynamic drop-down field in AEM Content Fragment Model. But while creating fragment, it need to show me the possible list of values populated in the drop-down from a back-end API.I already exlored acs commons generic list option but that again seems to be static. In case, if there are future changes to the content fragment model, then there is a need to update generic list again. Is there a possible approach to populate the JSON from API in a content fragment model?

Hi,

When you said you explore the "generic-list" option are you referring to this blog? https://blogs.perficient.com/2019/09/06/dynamic-dropdowns-in-aem-content-fragments/ . This blog clearly explains how to create a dynamic dropdown, you just need to adjust the logic to bring the options from your API instead of the "generic-list".

Hope this helps
