Hello,

I’m trying to customize a quote template and i need to check what values are selected in a dropdown select property but i can´t make it.

i have simple if sentence but i can’t reach the code inside the if.

{% if (BUYER\_COMPANY.responsabilidades\_fiscales).Prueba == true %}

Can some help me, please?

@Octav - the proerty values for a dropdown select are stored as string values inside the property. If ‘Prueba’ is one of the possible selections of the Company property ‘responsabilidades\_fiscales’ then I think the correct HubL test would be:

{% if BUYER\_COMPANY.responsabilidades\_fiscales == ‘Prueba’ %}

You could also use the HubL operator string\_containing if the property can contain multiple selected dropdown values  
([Operators & Expression Tests - HubSpot docs](https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/cms/hubl/operators-and-expression-tests#string-containing))

I hope this is helpful.

Steve
