Hi @delalma

Action tool or interface tools cannot be in a container. Here what you do message tool actual takes more than 1 connection hence we can check both radio button as well as file. If radio button is selected and file is not selected then show message.

Unfortunately, disabling/enabling containers doesn't work when you are working with Interface tools as the interface tools get resolved before disabled tool containers are resolved.

Could you also connect the radio button into your error message tool and make the error message expression check if the radio button is checked/unchecked as well as checking your condition for the File Browse tool?

Hi @delalma

If you're using a single radio button, there's no way to unselect it. Use a check box instead. In the attached workflow, if the check box is unchecked the message will generate an error and stop the workflow
