Hi,

You can get the selected value from the attribute which is mapped to the selectedKey property of the dropdownByKey UI element.

Please note that the attribute will return you the key value of the simple type of the attribute mapped to your dropdownByKey UI element.

thanks & regards,

Hi,

if you bind the contex attribute X to the drop down. You can select the current element by

wdContext.currentcontextElement().get<attribute>();

Kind Regards
