What is this rule about

You will now be able to hide the questions based on your answer to some previous question in a survey.

Why this is useful

This is useful when you have questions to be answered only when specific answers are provided or some conditions are met to some previous questions. So, now completing the survey will become very easy for your beneficiaries.

For example, if there are 100 questions in a survey and question number 10 is what is your gender male or female. In the survey, if the questions 21, 42 and 63 only apply to people who are Male and questions 14, 18 and 99 only apply to people who are Female, so now, this functionality will enable a user to set a question to be Hidden UNLESS a certain previous question has a specific answer. Therefore,

  • User can say that questions 21, 42, 63 should be Hidden UNLESS the answer to question 10 is Male

  • and user can say that questions 14, 18 and 99 should be Hidden UNLESS the answer to Question 10 is Female.
