Issue/Introduction

In the form designer, you can add >1 options into a select component. 
And this then shows in the SC-UI when you open a new request for the option with that form. 
When you open a request in the SC-UI itself, you can then open the dropdown and select one option form the list. 

However in webservices, you can set/select ONLY ONE option, right? 
There is no dropdown 'visible' in the web services, right? 
So in web services, you have to know the list of options(as shown in the UI) and Select&Set ONE accordingly. 

How to populate a dropdown/select component form within Web Services

When creating a request trough Web Services, you need to populate a select component.
How to set this form-field with a proper value?
 

Environment

Windows, running CA Service Catalog.

Resolution

This is accomplished with the code-setting as shown here:
<formValuesData xsi:type="xsd:string">offering_id:10180|rate_plan_id:10157|item_id:12498|date_1:08/22/2018 18:13:00|sel_1:Option1~Option1</formValuesData> 

Where 'sel_1' is the _id of the field on the form. 
And 'sel_1:Option1~Option1' then populates that field to the desired option. 

Please see the below example:
