select_one with pulldata

Ericdu_Boislouveau — Tue, 01 Sep 2020 07:23:30 GMT

Hi,

I need to use an select_one field that needs to be populate by a CSV file.
I was thinking of using the pulldata function but it doesn't seem to work.
Is there a solution?

Thanks

Hi Eric,

We're working on supporting select_one and select_multiple from file in the upcoming 3.11 release (as opposed to using the pulldata function). The latest beta builds are available for download via the Early Adopter Community if you'd like to start testing this functionality out with your workflow.

Hope this helps,

Brett

Ok, thank you, I downloaded version 3.11 but can you explain how to use the select_one function with a CSV file ?

type	name	label
select_one_from_file countries.csv	countries	Countries

Use the select_one_from_file question type as shown above and copy your csv file in the media folder.

The CSV file needs a column called name and another column called label.

This functionality is available on 3.11 Beta (available in Early Adopter Community)

Can you describe in more detail your motivation to populate a list from a CSV, as opposed to adding the list values into the choices worksheet? I

Thanks!
