sgapiRemoveOption(%%questionID,%%reportingvalue)

Important Update to Custom Scripting

SurveyGizmo's CustomScript Action now supports the LUA programming language. Visit our NEW Lua Scripting Resources!

Legacy Custom Scripting Language Deprecation Plans 

  1. New accounts (created after October 29, 2018) will only have the option to use Lua in scripts.
  2. As of October 29, 2018 Custom Scripting Actions will default to Lua as the scripting type in the Custom Scripting Action for accounts created before this date. You will be able to switch to the Legacy Custom Scripting; though we highly encourage using Lua.
  3. In the long term, Legacy Custom Scripting Actions will be switched to read-only. The exact date on this is to be determined; we will send notifications well ahead of time.

This function removes an multiple choice option (by reporting value as %%reportingvalue). For table questions it hides the column associated with that reporting value for all rows. This will not reset if back button is used. If you'd like to have the option reappear use the sgapiHideOption function.

Example

Here, we use the function sgapiRemoveOption to remove an option from question 2 based on the answer to question 1.

Check it out in an Example Survey

%%q1 = 4; //Question ID for question 1
%%q2 = 8; //Question ID for question 2
 
%%value1 = sgapiGetValue(%%q1); //Value for question 1
 
sgapiRemoveOption(%%q2,%%value1); //Remove the value of q1 from q2
