- Display Categories in a Tree Structure: A tree structure can be created based on ParentId values.
- Empty List Status: If there are no subcategories associated with the selected parent category, the message ‘No subcategories found’ can be displayed to the user.
- Filtering: Filters such as Category Name can be added optionally to narrow down the data.
Technical Risks
- Invalid ParentId: If a query is made with an undefined ParentId, an empty result may be returned.
- Beta Version Risk: Since the feature is still in beta, unstable results may occur in some edge cases.
- Data Format Incompatibility: The action output must be configured to be compatible with the UI element (Label, Value, Id, Text, etc.).
The Get Categories action enables dynamic, hierarchical, and filterable category management based on the EAV data model in the Kuika platform. When used with the ParentId parameter, parent-child relationships can be established between categories, and customised selection fields can be presented to the user.
