Selecting user input columns issue

[jakezhang]

Hi,

So essentially I want users to select 4 columns from their inputs. The workflow that I have built here don't know why but is doing the opposite, it is currently filtering out the columns that are selected and returning the columns that should be excluded. Just wondering how I can fix this?

You can try Dynamic Select tool with configuration like this. Please see the attached WF.

Hi gawa,

Much appreciated for providing a solution to this.

This approach worked but when I wanted to proceed to run some conditional formulas on these selected columns, I am having some issues to reference the selected columns because the selected columns are based on user inputs. 

Just wondering if there are ways for the output to flow through to subsequent workflows?

Hope this makes sense, thanks!

If you want to have "dynamic" interface based on the previous process result, you can use Chain Apps. Could you refer to the below article?
