# Radio/Checkbox/Select Fields

We have three so-called "Choice" field types:

* Radio button
* Checkbox
* Select Dropdown

If you prefer video, here's a quick video demo for all of them.

Now, separately about each one.

## Radio/Select Options

If you choose a field types **Radio** or **Select**, you should enter all different values in key-value pairs. One of them goes to the database value, another one is shown visually on the page, as a label. Also, you may specify **Default value**.

![Example for the Radio field type](/files/-M7q7nPlFg86h1bbl3u5)

![Example for the Select field type](/files/-M7q8N2fI9RdByC6MDKu)

## Customizing the options

The possible options with key-value pairs are saved in the Model, as constant array:

![](/files/-M7q6vUoiwsU9RODunEI)

So if you want to add more options or customize them, you need to edit those arrays.

In the database, those values are saved as **varchar** type, not as **enum**. That's why it's flexible to change in the model, without doing any manipulations in the database.

## Checkbox Default State

For the **Checkbox** field type, you can select whether it's checked by default:

![](/files/-M7q8q3exXZ1pDCf9bke)

## Visual Result

If we add all three fields shown above, here's how it will look in our panel:

![](/files/-M7q9g-rIjBrfQRkrsVw)

![](/files/-M7q9jeNua2L4LXgYRJr)

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://helpdocs.quickadminpanel.com/create-panel/radio-checkbox-select-fields.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
