Dynamically populate Touch UI dialog - select options

Hi team,

I want to populate touch UI dialog's select field from json file, is it possible without writing any backend/java code?

I am looking for an option similar to class UI dialog where we can specify options="<location of json file path>" for selection widget which automatically populates widget with the options from json file.

Thanks & Regards,

Rachna

    Hi all,

    Thank you for your replies,  we ended up using acs commons generic lists using data source option.

      Another method that also involves writing some custom code is to use the DataSource class:

        You must write custom Java code for this. You can use WCMUse class for this purpose: Adobe Experience Manager Help | Using an WCMUsePojo class to populate an Experience Manager Touch UI Select Field

          As per my understanding, there is no OOTB functionality for that use case and you have to write custom code. More details at [1]
