This is intended by design—when using the "Allow for multiple selects" option in the Choice component, value cannot contain commas, while display can contain commas.
Workarounds
If you need to display choices that typically include commas, here are a couple of workarounds:
1. Use Values Without Commas, but Display Them with Commas
Store the values in your data without commas (e.g.,
"New York NY"
instead of"New York, NY"
).Then, use a template column to format the display with commas while keeping the underlying values comma-free.
2. Replace Commas with Another Character
Instead of commas, use alternative separators like slashes ( / ) or vertical bars ( | ).
Example:
"New York / NY"
"New York | NY"
By applying these workarounds, you can maintain the clarity of your choices without running into selection issues.
