Using remote choice fields to directly access provider data
Remote choice fields provide your consumers direct access to your (provider) data in real time while they submit a remote catalog item from their instance.
Remote choice fields enable consumers to view the choice list for a catalog reference field directly from the provider's instance. They provide the following advantages:
- Removes the need to replicate foundation data.
- Reduces the cost and maintenance of integrations.
You can control the data that your consumers access by defining a remote choice field. To learn more, see Create remote choice definitions in Service Exchange for Providers.
