Simple Select Component

The Simple Select component is a lightweight single- or multi-select control for choosing from a defined list of options. Options can be defined manually or loaded from another field using a Data Reference Key.

How to read settings tables
The tables below describe each configurable option as it displays in the UnqorkAI platform. Values are formatted as follows: inline code — a value to type exactly as shown | Bold — a value selected from a drop-down, radio button, tab, or choice chip | ON/OFF — toggle state | ✓ — checkbox checked | ☐ — checkbox unchecked

Setting	Field	Type	Default	Description
Store Data in Database	`persistent`	Toggle	ON	When set to ON, this setting this setting stores field values to the database when the module saves, end-users navigate between Panel components, or end-users navigate between workflow screens.

Fields with Store Data in Database set to OFF are excluded from Plug-In component's API responses and Unqork's built-in tracker. When using a Plug-In component to remote-execute a module, any component whose value must be included in the API response requires Store Data in Database set to ON.

Operations Builder

This component supports the Operations Builder in Vega modules. When the module or panel runtime is set to Vega (2.0), an Event Handlers section displays in the settings panel for configuring event-driven operations.
