How to disable containers based on user drop down selection

Hello,

I had a question regarding multiple data streams in one workflow. How it is laid out is based on a user selection (ex: pears, apples, bananas, carrots) only a certain containers data stream should be ran. So if I have a separate container for each item (pears, apples, bananas, carrots), if the user selects carrots in the drop down, the other 3 containers should be disabled and only the carrots container should run.

How can I achieve this?

Hi @mbudcst

You can use condition tool like below. This is the best option while working with multiple containers.

You can leverage radio buttons with action tools that are connected to the containers. The Action tool would be configured to Enable/Disable the container based on what is selected. That way all containers would be in a disabled state until a radio button is selected.

What if i have interface tools available inside any of the container and i want to show it only when that container is enabled?
