In this tutorial, we will demonstrate how to set up the example shown in the Multi-Choice Conditional Use Case article. Find that article here.

Note that setup for Multi-Choice Conditional is very similar to Yes-No Conditional. Please refer to that article in conjunction with this guide. 

For more information on how to upload templates, go here.
  • While this example has five options, Multi-Choice Conditionals are not limited to only five radio buttons.
