Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe

This feature request proposes a combobox for backend roles to improve validation and data entry speed during role mapping.

Describe the solution you'd like

Hi team,

I'd like to propose using a combobox component on the role mapping screen to streamline the process of assigning backend roles. This combobox would populate with available backend roles, potentially retrieved from Active Directory.

This approach offers two key benefits:

  1. Validation: The combobox can automatically validate the user's selection against available backend roles, ensuring a valid connection and preventing potential errors.
  2. Efficiency: By using a dropdown menu, users can quickly choose the desired role, reducing the need for manual typing and improving data entry speed.

Overall, implementing a combobox for backend role selection can enhance the user experience by simplifying the mapping process and ensuring data integrity.

Thanks
