I have a collection of

categories

. Each category has an array field with

subcategories

. I have another collection

posts

with fields of

category

and

subcategory

. I have specified that the category field is related to the categories collection. However, how could I conditionally render the options for the subcategory field once a category has been chosen?

admin: { condition }

only allows me to show or hide the filed but not to render its options based on a payload request that uses the data from the previous field.

    Have you taken a look at the field conditional logic docs here?

    https://payloadcms.com/docs/fields/overview#conditional-logic

    . This should support dot notation which will help for your use-case.
