Scripting inquiry: If a question is 'yes/no' If yes, make another question auto populate

[Andrew Meza]

Hello Community,

I have some yes/no questions and also a separate question (dropdown, single line text, or if someone has a recommendation.

I need the separate question (sensitivity_level) to automatically be answered based on the yes or no questions. How can I go about this as I am learning more scripting functionality on the platform.

If is_this_information_intended_for_public_sharing =yes

make sensitivity_level = PUBLIC

If is_this_information_for_internal_use_by_employees_only =yes

make sensitivity_level = INTERNAL USE ONLY

If does_the_information_included_sensitive_memeber_data_such_as_personal =yes

make sensitivity_level = CONFIDENTIAL

If could_the_authorized_disclosure_of_this_information_result =yes

make sensitivity_level = HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL

If does_this_information_require_encryption =yes

make sensitivity_level = HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL

If is_this_information_regulated_by_laws_or_subject_to_compliance_audits =yes

make sensitivity_level = REGULATORY

***This will need to be an OnChange script***

Hi @Andrew Meza ,

Here is the example of Catalog onchange script, you can modify the variable's values accordingly.

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {
    if (isLoading || newValue === '') {
        return;
    }

    // Fetch values of all yes/no questions
    var publicSharing = g_form.getValue('is_this_information_intended_for_public_sharing');
    var internalUse = g_form.getValue('is_this_information_for_internal_use_by_employees_only');
    var sensitiveMemberData = g_form.getValue('does_the_information_included_sensitive_memeber_data_such_as_personal');
    var authorizedDisclosure = g_form.getValue('could_the_authorized_disclosure_of_this_information_result');
    var requiresEncryption = g_form.getValue('does_this_information_require_encryption');
    var regulatedByLaws = g_form.getValue('is_this_information_regulated_by_laws_or_subject_to_compliance_audits');

    // Determine the sensitivity level based on conditions
    var sensitivityLevel = '';
    
    if (publicSharing == 'yes') {
        sensitivityLevel = 'PUBLIC';
    } else if (internalUse == 'yes') {
        sensitivityLevel = 'INTERNAL USE ONLY';
    } else if (sensitiveMemberData == 'yes') {
        sensitivityLevel = 'CONFIDENTIAL';
    } else if (authorizedDisclosure == 'yes' || requiresEncryption == 'yes') {
        sensitivityLevel = 'HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL';
    } else if (regulatedByLaws == 'yes') {
        sensitivityLevel = 'REGULATORY';
    }

    // Set the sensitivity level field value
    if (sensitivityLevel !== '') {
        g_form.setValue('sensitivity_level', sensitivityLevel);
    }
}

Thank you for this. Am I setting this up correct? At the moment it is not working like intended.

Hi @Andrew Meza ,

Make sure all the backend values are mapped correctly to the script.

Choose the Variable name as the first yes/no question field (for example, is_this_information_intended_for_public_sharing) below the OnChange.
