Branched multiple choice question

Hi! Using Typeform to help users establish a quote, the form starts with a multiple choice questions (A,B,C,D) which then branches out to a series of questions, specific to either A, B, C or D. As the user may need A&B or B&C&D, multichoice is enabled. However managing the 15+ combinations of A&B&C&D, A&B&C, A&B&D, A&C&D, A&B, B&C, etc. is a heavy task, and each branch needs to be duplicated multiple times, which means that maintaining this after will be even more of a burden.

Is there a way to group questions in each of the branches, and have them editable separately, which means that editing branch A would affect all occurrences of branch A in this form?

The ultimate objective is for the user selecting A&B&D for example, to be asked to fill in all questions from branch A, then all questions for branch B and then all questions from branch D.

Thanks!

Hi @mattb Thanks for stopping by the community! I’m afraid we don’t have an easy way to mass-edit branches of your form, so you would need to do this manually. However, if you are comfortable with code, you could also use our APIs to do this!
