How to add two or more relevant to select_multiple question?

anonymous55 — Fri, 20 Aug 2021 02:40:18 GMT

Hello all,

I used "or" to add another relevant to multiple question from select one question. However, I am not sure if this is correct solution or I need to used "selected" option.
What is different between or and selected?

select_one parking_location	parking_location	Parking Location
select_multiple corral_maintenance	corral_maintenance	What is the state of the parking corral?	Select all that apply.	${parking_location}='sidewalk corral' or ${parking_location}='roadbed corral'
select_multiple corral_vehicles	corral_vehicles	How many other vehicles are in the corral?	Select all that apply.	${parking_location}='sidewalk corral' or ${parking_location}='roadbed corral'

Looks ok to me. My guess is you are checking the label value and not the name value in your parking_locaiton list.

Other idea is I have seen weird errors when you use the same name for the list as the field. I usually add the word List to the end to be safe.

selected is just something you can use instead of =. Mostly used for select multiple since = would not work. Your or looks ok.

Hope that is it

Hi. The selected() function is your friend here. Check the Common mistakes, errors and other tips section in https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-survey123-blog/understanding-multiple-choice-questions-in/ba-p/899006

The expressions you are currently using will only work if the user selects only one choice from the select_multiple question.

${parking_location} is a select _one though so this should work.

I tested with OR and it is working. interesting i couldn't find any articles about this and all videos just show one relevant option not multi ones like my issue .

Can you just post the form way easier to troubleshoot.
