Functionality to display the containers the user selects on a checkbox/list

VictoriaBuet

Hi community, 

 

I have 5 containers on my workflow which I need to be run if the user clicks on it (1 or more containers should be available to be chosen). Do you know how to create those options in a list box (see 2 examples in capture 2) from were the user can select 1 or more options and that will enable/disable the different containers?

 

So far I've tried with the only idea found on this community but is not working (see attached).

 

Thanks!

Have you seen this post

with the tip: put the containers into a macro, add a control parameter and connect it to the disable/enable button

Solved by mceleavey! Thanks Chris! In case someone needs the solution, I've attached a draft workflow.

In your solution, your action tool had the formula IF CONTAINS([#1], 'Module 2') then 'False' Else 'True' Endif. I understand that 'Module 2' is one of the drop down options for the container but where are you pulling the field name '[#1].
