How to add dynamic questions in Alteryx app based on drop-down selection

[Muralisagar]

I am trying to create an AlteryxApp for a survey, requirement is that I have 100 questions and I want only relevant 10 questions displayed on the app when certain team is selected (each team has 10 questions and there are few common questions)

Any suggestions pls

Hi @Muralisagar ,

what you are talking about here is Chaining.

Here are a couple of videos to get you up and running with chaining apps:

And if you want to get all sexy with it you can check out my blog on the subject:

Hope this helps,

HI Mceleavey,

thank you this is very helpful, I am still struggling to get what I wanted. this is working for dynamic list but I have a container for each questions (like 3 sub common questions for each main question) how to get that common structure to each dynamic question. please share your thoughts

regards,

Murali

Hi @Muralisagar 

As @mceleavey mentioned chaining apps is the way to go. Here is a weekly challenge that is similar to your use-case

These resources should help to give you an idea.

The way chaining works is you select an option in the first app based on that option shown in the second app changes. And since it's chained 2nd app pops up after you make a selection in the first app and creates a sequence.

You can use this guide to downgrade workflow files if needs https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Engine-Works/Making-Workflows-Apps-amp-Macros-Backwards-Compatible/...

Hope this helps 🙂
