I’m hoping for help with accessing the data from a MaxDiff question via JavaScript.For context, I am trying to create a MaxDiff survey with conditional follow-up questions. So if someone selects feature X during any of the MaxDiff questions as most preferred, then at the end of the survey they see the "feature X follow-up question." If they did NOT select feature X as most preferred, then they do NOT see that follow-up.I see that MaxDiff questions do not work with survey logic. So I am trying to get it to work with JavaScript.From an export of the data, I found the variable names associated with the MaxDiff selections:QID1_1QID1_2QID1_3…Which then correspond with the order of concepts in the following variables:1.1_MAXDIFF1.2_MAXDIFF1.3_MAXDIFF…But I can’t figure out how to access the value in JavaScript.When I return a console.log of the following MaxDiff variables, it returns nothing: temp_MaxD_Question = '${q://QID1_1}';console.log("temp_MaxD_Question = " + temp_MaxD_Question); With a multiple choice question, I know to append “/ChoiceGroup/SelectedChoices” which when returning in as console.log, returns the value of what was selected:temp_MC_Question = '${q://QID7/ChoiceGroup/SelectedChoices}';console.log("temp_MC_Question = " + temp_MC_Question); Does someone you show me how to access the value of the variables like QID1_1 and 1.1_MAXDIFF? I found the post below, but it only suggestions JavaScript as a solution. It does not describe how to do it. Thanks a ton!

Thanks for the response,@TomG. I tried what you suggested. Pipingthe data with your syntax returned nothing. And when I tried to do a console log with JavaScript, it also returned nothing.I then tried similar syntax that matches the variable name in the export file,“${q://QID1_1/”:${q://QID1_1/ChoiceGroup/SelectedChoicesForAnswer/1It also did not match.What I gave you is what you would pipe from a Maxdiff question. My guess is that it isn’t working because what you are trying to pipe is itself piped.I think your best hope is to run JS from the header to capture and save the most choices to embedded data fields.

I don’t know js, but I have this need too! I want to pipe forward all items selected as “most” from a maxdiff into a Likert.
