When I selected the checkbox and set the value for the Variable Naming in Recode Values as first screenshot: !,But when I set the selected choices recode in mapping salesforce fields, I get the number like sort number, no the Variable Naming value. When I selected the recode checkbox and the get the number again. Is there something wrong? !

Hi @annaWang I have run into this when trying to shorten long answer choices for display in SalesForce, and found that the _variable name_ is not currently available for use as reporting text. To get around this I used javascript to set an embedded data field with the text I wanted to report and mapping to the new embedded field to SalesForce as a text field. You may find a better solution through support, but this solved it for me. If not you can make and enhancement request (here) by filling out the form and selecting enhancement request.
