In survey flows, I found blocks of survey questions sometimes have the "Block" flow type, and sometimes have the "Standard" flow type. It is not clear to me why there is this distinction. Relevant API document is here: https://api.qualtrics.com/c2NoOjYwNTk1-flow-type.
What's the difference between "Block" and "Standard" in flow type?

The difference is the first default question block has Type: "Block" and all the sub-blocks have type:"Standard" as default. You can see in image below:
"Flow": [
{
"ID": "^BL_[a-zA-Z0-9]{11,15}$",
"Type": "Block",
"FlowID": "FL_2"
},
{
"ID": "^BL_[a-zA-Z0-9]{11,15}$",
"Type": "Standard",
"FlowID": "FL_3"
},
{
"ID": "^BL_[a-zA-Z0-9]{11,15}$",
"Type": "Standard",
"FlowID": "FL_4"
}
],
But, if you include these blocks in a branch logic or below any element your each block will change it's type to "Block".
Hope it helps!
