Conditional questions

When creating questions on forms on the InEvent platform it is possible to add conditional questions. This means you can add a second question depending on the answer that the attendee gives to a specific question on the form.

To do this, you will use the Question Parent Selection function, which serves as a conditional to attach a question to an answer.

You can add conditional questions to the three types of forms offered by InEvent

1. Registration form
2. Feedback form
3. Custom Form

How do I create a conditional question for a Yes/No question?

Once you are on the registration, feedback, or custom form page, you will need to follow the steps below:

1. First, you need to set up the parent question on the platform. To do this, click on the +Add question.

1. Write the parent question in the question title (For example 'Are you staying overnight?').
2. For the question-answer type, select Yes/No from the drop-down bar.
3. Press Create.

1. Now, you can create the child question, which does not necessarily have to be a Yes/No question. To do this, click on the +Add question.
2. Write the child question in the question title (For example, 'In which hotel?')
3. Select any answer type you wish.
4. Use the Question parent selector tool to select the parent question previously created.
5. Select the parent option, in this case, Yes.
6. Press Create.

If the attendee selects Yes when asked 'Are you staying overnight?' the child's question will be displayed: 'In which hotel?'. If the attendee selects No for the first question, the child question will not be displayed.

How do I create a conditional for a question that has a list of options as the answer type?

Once you are on the registration, feedback, or custom form page, you will need to follow the steps below:

1. First, you need to set up the parent question on the platform. To do this, click on the +Add question.
2. Write the parent question in the question title (For example, 'What form of transport will you use to get to the event?').
3. For the question answer type, select Option List from the drop-down bar.
4. Press Create.

1. Click on the question and press Edit.

1. Click on the Options tab > type your options there (For example, Bus, Train and App) > click on End.

1. Click on +Add question and write the child question in the question title (For example, 'What app do you usually use?')
2. Select any answer type you wish.
3. Use the Question parent selector tool to select the parent question previously created.
4. Select the parent option, in this case, App.
5. Press Create.

If attendees answer 'App' to the question 'What form of transport will you use to get to the event?', they will be redirected to the question 'What app do you usually use?'. As the example below demonstrates: 

Triggers

When using conditional questions, it's possible to segment the audience based on the answers provided. To do so, you can follow the next steps which will teach how to assign participants to selected lists: Add a question using Yes/No or Option lists as the Question Answer Type.

1. Click on the question created, and then click on Triggers.
2. Click Edit on the top right corner to make changes and select from the drop-down bar the lists that should be triggered based on the expected answer, e.g 'Yes' or 'No'.
3. Click on End to save the changes.
