# Option Lists

Learn how to create and manage Option Lists for dropdown menus in workflows with single or multi-select functionality.

Use Option Lists to define the values available in dropdown fields.

For example, you might create lists for countries, statuses, or assessment types.

Option Lists are shared across workflows.

If you change an Option List, every field that uses it updates too.
