I want to filter a confiform Table view that is inside of registration control for a separate form?

Evan Hiatt July 25, 2023

I have 2 coniform form definitions. One form has a field called "toolUses" that references the other form using a smart checkbox field. In the registration control form I want to use the users smart checkbox entry to the "toolUses" question to display more information about the entry from the second form that the "toolUses" field pulls data from. I think I want to display it in a table view.

Below is a picture of what I want it to look like if a user selects an option such as "calibrate models and simulations":

I am doing this because I am trying to show the Use case description information without having to show all of them at the same time. I don't want to overwhelm the user. (If you have better suggestions, I am open to them)

Anyway,

Below is a picture of how I currently have this defined:

Where the TableView has this filter currently (I only do it like this as an example):

Filter is:

useCaseName.text:Calibrate Models and Simulations

I have tried to replace the filter with this, but it displays nothing:

useCaseName.text:[entry.toolUses.text]

For context, here is the definition of the "useCaseName" Field defintion:

Any suggestions would be great! I also have duplicate "Use Case Names" and I am not sure how to deal with those, but I am trying to solve one problem at a time. 

Thanks

Hi @Evan Hiatt 

TableView is rendered on page render and there is no such thing as "[entry.toolUses.text]"

As new records have no values in fields - there is nothing to filter on.

As for the duplicates - you probably have different records in the form that holds your "use cases" data. Separate records are presented separately - these are not duplicates, even if they share the same label text

Ah, bummer about TableView. I will try to figure out an alternative. 

Thanks,
