Multi selecting strings from jsonOptions

[Morgensol]

Hi i've been looking through the examples over and over and tested out different combinations but i cannot figure out how to achieve being able to dynamically multi pick through a json file with jsonOptions, as it seems json options does not take variable inputs. Here is an example of json file i want to select data from:

{
    "SomeConfig": [
        "here",
        "there"
    ],
    "SomeOtherConfig": [
        "something",
        "else"
    ]
}

And here is the input example i want to achieve:

{
      "id": "config_pick",
      "type": "command",
      "command": "extension.commandvariable.pickStringRemember",
      "args": {
        "description": "Select Config",
        "debug":true,
        "key": "config_pick",
        "fileName": "${workspaceFolder}/config/config.json",
         "pickStringRemember": {
            "ConfigPick": {
                "description": "Select target distro",
                "key": "distro",
                "options": ["SomeConfig", "SomeOtherConfig"]
            },
        },
        "fileFormat": "json",
        "jsonOption": {
            "label": "content.${pickStringRemember:ConfigPick}[__itemIdx__]",
            "description": "content.${pickStringRemember:ConfigPick}[__itemIdx__]",
            "value": "content.${pickStringRemember:ConfigPick}[__itemIdx__]"
        }
      }
}

@Morgensol Because the example config file has no dummy info regarding distros I have a problem trying to figure out what you want the pick list to be.

Do you want to pick first between: SomeConfig and SomeOtherConfig

And then show a new picklist with the options from the sub-array (e.q. content.SomeConfig) in the config file?

The term multi-pick for pickStringRemember means being able to pick multiple items in the list, but you don't use the multiPick property.

@rioj7 Hi sorry for the late reply, and thanks for taking the time for reading my issue and formulating an answer.

What im looking for is a workflow that works like this:
Prompt user for a distro that you want to build for, then depending on which distro was chosen it should now present the user with the choises available for that distro, so if we take the axample i have above and make it more concrete:

{
    "bullseye": [
        "armhf",
        "amd64"
    ],
    "trixie": [
        "arm64",
        "amd64"
    ]
}

For this concrete example the user should be able to pick either bullseye or trixie, if he user picks trixie they are able to pick either arm64 or amd64, if the pick bullseye they can pick either armhf or amd64.

It doesnt have to be exactly like this, but im looking for a way to not having to specify the pick options directly in the tasks.json, but reading them from another json file. You could see it as a navigation through the json, I would also be fine with a solution where you have to hardcode the initial options (Bullseye and trixie) and then use those to pick out the information from the config file above, the problem with this is to my understanding the json options doesnt take variable inputs, the only "dynamic" thing i can specify to it is [itemIdx]
