If statement and add data to field

joerodmey

What is the structure of an if/else statement in Survey123?

I'm trying to check the username of the user, if true then grab the answer from a select one question, if not then just grab the username from the username question type. No luck so far

To provide some info to your response:

There will be no situations where ${Call_In_Name} is selected, but you still want to use ${Name} instead
Using the following method: if(string-length(${Call_In_Name})>0, ${Call_In_Name}, ${Name}) doesn't seem to overwrite the data already in the textbox (which would be the username)
The select one question will be hidden to all users except to myself (admin account). Will using this approach and relevant criteria cause the fields to be blank?
Yes name should be used all the time unless I (admin) wants to override but not capture my AGOL login info and I then see the select one question and override the username

The workflow is the following:

staff member submits a request using the survey
the process continues through to be dispatched and work completed. A second survey is employed to edit and dispatch crews
But if a staff member doesn't use the survey and calls me, I want to be able to add in the request on their behalf
This creates the need for a workaround so that my AGOL username isn't shown in the data

So if I understand correctly, it sounds like you have two conditions to trigger ${Call_In_Name} being used in the textbox:

When ${Name}='Internal'
When an option in ${Call_In_Name} is selected

For the second condition, you state "if the username is already in there and the user clicks on the select one question." Are there any situations where ${Call_In_Name} is selected, but you still want to use ${Name} instead? If not, then this should probably do what you need:

if(string-length(${Call_In_Name})>0, ${Call_In_Name}, ${Name})

This checks to see if ${Call_In_Name} has been answered, and if so, grabs that value. If not, ${Name} is used instead.

And just in case someone has 'Internal' for ${Name} but tries to skip answering ${Call_In_Name}, you can put this condition in the required column for ${Call_In_Name}:

if(${Name}='Internal')

(note, conditionally required questions apparently don't work in web forms)

With this setup, the textbox will always equal the ${Call_in_Name} as long as that question is answered. If instead you want to use ${Name} all the time unless A) it's 'Internal' or the user wants to optionally override it, you'll need to do that with at least another question and some additional statements.

I have this:

if(${Name}='Internal', ${Call_In_Name}, ${Name})

Where Name is the name of the account

Call_In_Name is a select one answer

This is going into a textbox. I want to grab Call_In_Name if the username (Name) is equal to "Internal", else just grab the username (Name) and put it into the textbox

There is also a requirement to overwrite what's in textbox if the username is already in there and the user clicks on the select one question

From the documentation:

if(condition, a, b)

Where:

condition is the statement to be evaluated
a is the result if true
- ${question}
b is the result if false (else condition)
- property('username')

The linked page has plenty of functions and operators to help you set up your if condition. If you're still stuck, describe exactly what you're trying to check and how, and someone can try to help you further.
