Question logic is configured from the ⋯ menu on a question card. Conditions use the same rule builder whether they control a question, section, option, jump, screen-out, or early end.

​
Before you start

Save the source questions and place them before the questions that depend on them. Write the expected route for a matching and a non-matching answer.

​
Show content conditionally

1

Open the condition builder

Open the question’s ⋯ menu and select Show only if…. For an entire section, use its Show section when control instead.
2

Add the rule

Select Add condition, then choose an earlier question, an operator, and the value to match.
3

Combine conditions

Conditions use AND by default. Change the connector to OR or select Add condition group when the logic requires grouped conditions.
4

Review the summary

The card displays a Show if summary. Read it as a sentence and confirm it matches the intended participant route.
Completed condition: the earlier cold-coffee frequency equals Every day

Show the purchase-location question only when the earlier frequency answer is Every day.

Use is one of or is not one of to match several values in one rule. Numeric questions also support comparisons such as greater than and less than. AI checks evaluates an open-text answer against an instruction you provide. Place a shared condition on the section or block when every item inside it follows the same rule. Individual options can also use Only show this option if….

​
Jump to a later question or section

Open ⋯ → Jump to…, select a destination later in the questionnaire, and add the condition that activates the jump. The question card shows a Jump to … if … summary. Jumps only move forward. A destination inside a randomized block is not accepted because its position can differ between participant routes. Select a destination outside the block or remove that block’s randomization. Use conditional display when the requirement is to hide a set of questions without moving to a named destination.

​
End the survey after a qualifying route

Use ⋯ → End survey when… to complete the response when a condition is met at that point. This records an early completion rather than a screen-out. Screening questions use Screening rule instead. A screen-out identifies a participant as outside the required audience and can send them to the configured screen-out redirect.

​
Insert an earlier answer into text

Type @ in question text, help text, or an option label. Select an earlier question or variable, then test the substituted text.

​
Reuse earlier selections as options

Use Options source → Pipe from question on the target question. See Reuse earlier answers for selected, unselected, ranked, and numeric sources.

​
Randomize options, rows, blocks, or sections

Test rules that enter or leave a randomized area. Do not use a jump destination inside a randomized block.

​
Create a derived variable

Open Variables → Add variable in the builder. Follow Create a derived variable to define cases or a calculation, test the result, and verify stored values.

​
Use a formula in a rule

Select ƒx or Use a formula instead on a condition row. Insert numeric references with @ or {, then build the comparison. A formula can only use numeric questions or variables available before the point where it runs.

​
Test the full logic

Open Test from the builder view menu. Run Flow coverage to identify unreachable content, then use a test link to complete each important route as a participant. Test a branch where an earlier source is never shown, as well as one where a participant explicitly skips it. Rules read never-shown sources as blank (zero for numeric evaluation); this is different from an answer still waiting to be collected. Check that validation and screening finish with the intended outcome.

​
Check the result

Complete both routes through a test link and inspect their final statuses. A saved rule must name its source, operator, and value; an empty condition is not a completed example.
