Question

I have 2 data set, one with question & another with 4 options for each questions among those 4 one will have correct answer. Can anyone suggest best way to designee workflow, that on gallery user should get all question displayed with their respective options, so that user can give his input in form of selection.

P.S data set will get changed from time to time.

I am not aware of a way to automate the contents of the interface (e.g. the question name), however a workaround could be to have a list box that is populated from your data. E.g. it would be in the format of Question: Answer A, Question: Answer B

It's not the most elegant solution, as if the question is very long you'll have it repeated multiple times. Also this only works for a multiple choice question!

Alternatively it might be worth investigating with chained apps - https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Alteryx-Designer-Knowledge-Base/Chained-Alteryx-Analytic-Applications/ta-p/7597?advanced=false&collapse_discussion=true&filter=location&location=category:external&search_type=thread

yes, I have some understanding on interface tools & how to use it. But a challenge I have here is questions & options are dynamic in nature. So help on a solution here can be a help

Hi @amitpanchal19, have you played around with the interface tools yet?

By creating an analytical app, you can set the question in the interface, the user response as an input, then build some logic in the workflow to check against the file of answers (e.g. formula tool to check X=Y, then create a correct or incorrect flag).

I would recommend getting started with the learning path - https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Interactive-Lessons/tkb-p/interactive-lessons/label-name/Creating%20Analytic%20Apps
