Hiya

Is it at all possible to have an action parameter query that asks you how many action parameters queries you want to specify?

For example, if i have an action parameter query that says “how many files do you want to backup?” and the answer is 3, could it the create 3 seperate action parameter queries asking me for the file path of each of the 3 files i want to backup?

Makes sense i hope :slight_smile:

Cheers

Steve

I tried putting the “action parameter query” in an if-statement but it doesn’t work :frowning:

That seems to be confirmed here:

So, your best work around may be to have a single prompt that says to enter multiple file separated by something like a semi-colon… and then parse out the file paths in the action (using relevance) when executed on the endpoint.
