# How to update the list of options of a select field in my form?

| Usually, select/multi-select options are refreshed automatically every few hours for Pro and Enterprise Users, but we have included a feature that allows you to disable the automatic refresh if desired.

**To add some more options or edit existing options, ** **simply edit your select property by within your Notion Database. ** ****

* Go on your form page
* Click on the blue "Edit form" button
* You should see your the new list of options in the form preview

If you use a **People** field, make sure the people listed in your Notion database are still valid workspace members. If some users were removed from the workspace, update the People property in Notion and remove those outdated entries.

||| Please note that there is a character limit for options in the select and multi-select input fields due to a limitation in the Notion API. Each option can have a maximum of 90 characters. If your use case requires longer text, we recommend using the relation field as an alternative.
