I would like to replace existing custom field root cause analysis as a text field with Select List (multiple choices) option. How can I make sure that the data will not going to be deleted after changing.

Hi @malika.raupova - You won't be able to change the field type after the field is created.  You'll need to create a new field.  To preserve the old data, you could take these steps:

  1. Rename the old field to ensure no confusion
  2. Remove it from all Create/Edit screens so that the legacy data is still accessible, but not editable
