Can I pipe selected choices from a single-choice/dropdown list within a side-by-side question?
+3I am setting up a Contact List Trigger and need to pipe text from multiple questions in my survey. I have a side-by-side question with several columns, including a column with a dropdown list. I would like to create a field in my Contact list that pipes the selected choice from this dropdown list. It seems I can pipe the selected choice recode value, but not the text choice. I really need the text choice - am I missing something? Or is there a work-around?
Thanks for any help!

@ccook - Everything you have is correct. I even tested the selection separately and it is piping the correct value for me. This might be a technical bug with your your survey and Quatlrics support may need to look in to it further.
As a work around, try creating an embedded data value in the survey flow and piping that value in to your contact list trigger instead of from the question.

If you look at SPC1name, you have it set to 1: - First Last, and if you look at SPC1loc, you have it set to 1: - city/town. However if you look at SPC1locc, you have it set to Professional Designation - 1: (backwards from the way the other 2 are set).
Is there a "1: - Professional Designation" option in your piped text?
Do you mind posting the .qsf file and I will take a look?
+3@Akdashboard , what you're saying makes sense! I don't see the option you mention though, which was along the lines of what I was looking for.
Attached is the .qsf.
