Have analytic app run different analytic app based upon filter

bsharbo

Hello everyone. Is there a way to set up a chained analytic app so that when the first app is completed, it would run One of Two other analytic apps?

 

So for example: The first app would give the users a list of 5 items, and then depending on the item that the user chose that app would launch one of 5 other analytic apps (with vastly different workflow / logic / etc..)?  I tried to accomplish this using the Crew_macro runner however it looks like if you put an analytic app inside of this macro it doesn't actually give the application interface, so i'm not sure if that method will work. 

 

If this is not possible, is it possible within one workflow for One dropdown to filter another dropdown? 

 

 

For Example: the first dropdown would be "use Default Assumptions / Change assumptions" (a 1-0 selector), and the second drop down would be a list of the "Different assumptions".  

 

This way If a user wanted to select the "use Default Assumptions" then the second drop down would simply filter to the default assumptions from the list below (or would simply disappear)?

 

Thanks very much everyone! As always any help is extremely appreciated!

@bsharbo,

 

Here is some outside of the box thinking...

 

How about having your app call the analytic app ... NextApp.wxyz

 

Within the 1st/calling app you could copy the app of your choosing to NextApp.wxyz.  There might be an easier way, but this should work in theory.

I was able to get this sovled by fixing some settings on our server to allow for chained applications to work!
