A Checkboxes library field is an ordered set of text strings from which a user might select any or all. A Checkboxes entry field contains either an empty string or a concatenated, comma-separated string values chosen from this list.

The value of a Checkboxes field may be used as a dependency to determine visibility of other fields during entry creation and edit.

During import or sync with Google, if a value is found that is not in the list, it will be created.

During import, export, or sync with Google Sheets, the list is externalized by concatenation using a comma separator (", ").
