Auto Action on select field

I have a 'select' type CB field which has two values - Yes and No. I would like to use the onBeforeUserBlocking trigger to set this to No when a user is blocked.

I have tried using a Field type action with a Set Field operator to set the value to No but this does not work with a 'select' type CB field.

How can I achieve the required outcome?

Depends on how you're blocking the user. I suggest using the following.

Triggers: onAfterUserBlocking, onAfterUserUpdate, onAfterUpdateUser
Conditional: [block] Equal To 1

You can then use a field action or whatever action you like. This allows handling setting your field whether they're blocked from profile update or from the toggle. For example editing a user in backend and setting the blocked field to yes won't fire onAfterUserBlocking, but it will fire onAfterUpdateUser so you need to act on both to handle both usecases. The condition ensures your action only takes place if they're truly blocked.

Thank you so much - exactly what I needed

I have also been able to reverse the actions taken when the user is subsequently unblocked with a second Auto Action.

Auto Actions is a fantastic facility and I am slowly (oh so very slowly!) starting to understand how to use it.

Is there a full list of the triggers anywhere (for those of us not writing our own plugins)?

onAfterUserBlocking, onAfterUserUpdate and onAfterUpdateUser aren't on the dropdown list of triggers in CB 1.9 although they work fine.

Here is quite a list: www.joomlapolis.com/support/tutorials/120-api-usage/18358-using-cb-triggers
I should watch this webinar and maybe some tutorials before I start playing with auto actions: vimeo.com/70504617

Most of the triggers are on the following tutorial as heyai has linked, but I'll admit it is out of date. I'll be updating it at some point once I've got all the plugins up to date as with each CB 2.x plugin upgrade I've been adding new triggers to plugins and removing non-relevant ones.

Yeah the dropdown maybe out of date if you're not on CB 2.x as I've updated the trigger dropdown with CB 2.x release of CB Auto Actions. Regardless you can add whatever trigger you like to the input. The dropdown is just a quick-add feature, but you're not limited to what is on the dropdown.
