Join questions without related table

SMauri — Tue, 15 Sep 2020 15:49:16 GMT

Hi all,

my goal is to aggregate several question in one column, with a comma as separator.

So I insert a Repeat section in my survey. But I don't want any related table in my structure. So I insert null as parameter in bind::esri:fieldType column, as you can see below.

type	name	calculation	bind::esri:fieldType
begin repeat	RepeatSection	Repeat	null
text	MyQuestion	My Question
end repeat
text	QuestionJoin	join(",",${MyQuestion})

Unfortunately the table is present in the structure.

Is this an expected behavior?

Thank you

Stefano

Hi. This is expected behavior. The null value in bind::esri:fieldType will be ignored by repeats.

Hi Ismael,

thank you for quick reply.

Can you suggest me any workaround to get the required goal?

Cheers
