What starting value should I use?

Dataverse numbers new choices from your publisher's option value prefix, so the values are often 100000000, 100000001 and so on for the default publisher. Use your own publisher's prefix to match.

What is the difference between an option set and a choice?

They are the same thing. Dynamics 365 called them option sets, and newer Dataverse and Power Apps documentation usually calls them choices.

Why was my label changed in the code?

Code names cannot contain spaces or most symbols, so a label like In Progress becomes InProgress. The original label is kept in the JSON output.

Is my list sent anywhere?

No. It runs entirely in your browser, and nothing you enter or open is uploaded, stored or sent to a server.

About Dynamics 365 Option Set Generator

Dynamics 365 Option Set Generator saves you from typing enums by hand. Paste the labels of a choice column, and it numbers them from your publisher's value prefix and generates code you can copy into plug-ins, form scripts or integrations.

Labels are turned into safe member names automatically, and duplicates are caught before they become bugs. Check generated values against your column if it already exists, because its values may differ. This is an independent tool, and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Microsoft.
