Adding Conditional Logic to InForms

Conditional logic allows an InForm to display follow-up questions based on a respondent's answer. This helps keep forms focused by showing only relevant questions, creating a simpler experience for users and improving the quality of collected data.

Key Benefits:

Show only relevant questions based on a respondent's answers.
Reduce the time required to complete forms.
Improve data quality by guiding respondents through the appropriate question flow.

Steps to Add Conditional Logic

1. Open the InForm that requires updating.

Note: If the InForm is classified as Organizational, it can only be updated by users with the appropriate permissions. Contact a health system administrator or Laudio Support for assistance.

2. Select the Manage Questions tab.

3. Locate the question that will trigger the conditional logic.

Note: Conditional logic can only be added to question types that use predefined answer options.

4. Click the Conditional Logic (cascade) icon in the bottom-right corner of the question.

5. In the slide-out panel, select the response that should trigger additional questions in the If Answer Equals field.

Multiple response options can be configured to display the same follow-up question by multi-selecting options for the If Answer Equals field.

6. In the Then Show field, select one or more follow-up questions that should appear when the selected response is chosen.

Note: Create all follow-up questions before configuring conditional logic. Questions that do not already exist will not appear in the Then Show list.

7. Save the changes. Once saved, a visual indicator appears on the questions included in the logic flow, making it easy to identify how questions are connected.

FAQs

Q: Which forms support conditional logic?
A: Conditional logic can be added to privately created InForms and Scripts.

Q: Why can't I select a question for conditional logic?
A: Some question types do not support conditional logic. The trigger question must use predefined answer options that can be selected from a list.

Q: Why doesn't my follow-up question appear in the Then Show list?
A: Follow-up questions must be created before setting up conditional logic. Create the question first, then return to the conditional logic settings.
