Hello,

I have a field group, eg Post Field Group. That Field group has a couple different fields, including a radio button field, news-type. The news-type field has several options - 'blog', 'award', 'grant', etc. How can I use the Toolset API to get an array of those options? I'm trying to build a new REST API endpoint and can get a list of all the fields in the field group using some of the methods / objects listed here: https://toolset.com/documentation/programmer-reference/toolset-custom-field-api/. I can for instance use toolset_get_field_group() and get data about each field with get_field_definitions(), but can't figure out how to get the field options.

Thanks,
Cole

Hello and thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

I believe the custom code in the following reply might help you see how the Fields API can be used with checkboxes. It may inspire you to do the same for Radio buttons.
