The 2026 Drupal Business Survey is open. Your response will help shape the future of the Drupal business ecosystem.Multiple-value fields are a pain on entities. Webform Tokens gets around this by providing tokens for each checkbox value.
Consider doing something like this (if Entity Token or another module doesn't already).
Reference issue: #1895518: Checkboxes again

emilorol commentedHi,
This is just an idea:
What if the transformation box can support PHP so that an string match can be executed and the return will be the key|value pair?
Just one more:
What about some sort of special token like [multiline-field:field-name:value] that comes with the module?
Comment #2
emilorol commentedOne more thought:
If I read the module code correctly the line "KEY|VALUE" is split and a simple string replace will replace the KEY with the VALUE. What if instead of a str_replace we use a preg_replace, that should do the trick.

jwjoshuawalker commentedI am about to code a solution for this, unless someone has already gone down this path.
Hopefully where I wind up solves more than just my needs.
Comment #5
wizonesolutionsThat'd be great. Ideally it'd be a Token-compatible solution (most likely :first, :value(0), :last, etc.). I wonder if array tokens already handle that, but I don't recall and seem to be under the impression that they don't.

jwjoshuawalker commentedI wound up making a custom module that merged fields and called
fillpdffunctions from within.Nothing worth sharing :(
