Details

A selectize list creates a way to select one or more items from a list.

To use a selectize list that allows you to select a single item:

  1. Add selectizeInput() to the UI of your app to create a selectize list. Where you call this function will determine where the selectize list appears within the app’s layout.

  2. Specify the inputId and label parameters of selectizeInput() to define the identifier and label of the select list.

  3. Supply the choices parameter with a list of choices. If the list contains names, selectizeInput() will display these names in place of the values within the widget’s drop down menu.

    You can also supply with choices a list of lists. selectizeInput() will use the top-level keys as group labels. See Select with grouped choices variation.

The value of an input component is accessible as a reactive value within the server() function. To access the value of a selectize list:

  1. Use input$<selectize_id> (e.g., input$select) to access the selected value. The server value of a selectize list is a vector of strings. When multiple = FALSE, this vector will have length 1.

Selectize with grouped choices

To group the choices into categories, supply the choices argument with a list of lists selectizeInput() will use the top-level names as group labels.
