Adding a Condition to a Survey Question

In a survey, you can have a question that displays or not depending on the answer to a previous question.

Here is an example of using a condition:If the respondent's answer to the preferred communication is the phone (question 3), then question 4 will be displayed to ask the respondent's phone number. In this article, we will see the steps to recreate this example.

How-To

1. Create the question for the communication channel (with radio buttons):
   In the Choices section, add the answer options by indicating the value for each answer:
   
2. Create a page for the condition.
   Note: Questions linked to a condition must be on a page dedicated to that condition. If more several questions are linked to the same condition, you can put them on the same page.                                                                                                                                                
   
   
3. Create the question to ask the phone number:For the Rank order, indicate the page created on step 2. Click Add when you are done.                                                                                                                            
4. Return to the edition of the phone number question (the one from step 3).                                                                                                        
5. In the Condition section, click the magic wand icon:
