Hi, I have a form with checkboxes. I also tried downdown list but the answer will be the same one of them selected. Say 3 checkboxes.
Next I want to fill a PDF, and select the same checkbox from the form on the PDF.
I thought of using zapier formatter, transform or utilities etc. but can’t figure how to say if checkbox 1 on the google form is selected, set YES to the checkbox A on the PDF etc. Basically mirror the checkbox selection from the form on the PDF.

Hi
Good question.
You can use a Formatter > Text > Default Value for each option.
OR
This can be handled with a Code step: https://zapier.com/apps/code/help
You can use this to create default values for each option whether the option exists or not.
// O stands for Option
let O1 = inputData.O1 || "false";
let O2 = inputData.O2 || "false";
let O3 = inputData.O3 || "false";
output = [{O1, O2, O3}];
OK I figured it myself. Instead of putting all possible values in the lookup table, which will all yield YES, I used several utilities lookup, each giving a YES if it matches. So each one becomes a step.
then in the PDF filling, each checkbox is assigned to a step. Now each checkbox has its own possible answer, not the always YES if all contained in the same lookup table.

Nice
Thanks for coming back to share how you solved this one. Let us know if you have any other questions & happy Zapping! ⚡
I have a question. I created a quiz with a multiple answer question with checkboxes. So let's say they have to choose, from a total of 10 items, the 5 that are correct to the question. So the total points for this question is 5. I tried it and the problem is that it either gives you the 5 points if you get all the answers correct or 0 even if you have 4 correct.
