topic Using concat for select_one or select_multiple in ArcGIS Survey123 Questions https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-survey123-questions/using-concat-for-select-one-or-select-multiple/m-p/805745#M12000 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hello,</P><P></P><P>I have a question about using using concat for creating a string based on previous answers in the same survey. I'm using the concat function to create a custom url to prepopulate answers for next steps in my survey. This works ok for the most question types, however when I use concat for select_one or select_multiple types the result is converted into ["result"]. Does anyone know how to solve this to get for example A,B,C instead of ["A,B,C"]?</P><P></P><P>I've found a trick by first creating an extra note field with the result of my select_multiple, and afterwards using this new note field in my concat function to create a string. I have however a lot of select_multiple fields and was hoping there is a better way than creating a lot of extra note fields. In the provided calculations sample this also occurs.</P><P></P><P>Thanks, Niels</P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 02 Mar 2017 14:24:35 GMT Nielsvan_Rijn2 2017-03-02T14:24:35Z Using concat for select_one or select_multiple https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-survey123-questions/using-concat-for-select-one-or-select-multiple/m-p/805745#M12000 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hello,</P><P></P><P>I have a question about using using concat for creating a string based on previous answers in the same survey.
