Link or unlink responses in templates
Learn how to link or unlink responses in templates via the web app and the mobile app.What are linked responses?
Linked responses allow you to link your questions in your templates to reduce repetitive input, save time, and keep your inspections consistent. Once linked, questions can be automatically populated with the same responses selected for an earlier question. For example, if multiple questions rely on the same response, linking them means your team only needs to answer once, making inspections faster and easier to complete.
You need at least two multiple-choice response questions in your template to set up linked responses.
Source: The question that your team needs to answer. This question isn't required by default, but you can mark it as required if needed. Keep in mind that if it's left unanswered, all target questions linked to it will also remain unanswered.
Target: The question(s) linked to the source question, which are automatically populated based on the responses selected in the inspection. Target questions can't be answered manually.
Los cambios publicados realizados en las plantillas solo se aplican a las nuevas inspecciones en el futuro.

Preguntas frecuentes
Questions may not appear in the list for the following reasons:
The question is inside a repeat section. Linking questions in repeat sections isn’t currently supported.
You have already linked the question to a source question. Linked questions are automatically removed from the list and can’t be selected as source questions.
No, you can only unlink responses directly from the target questions, one at a time. As a workaround, you can temporarily move the source question into a repeat section, which unlinks all target questions.
Afterward, you can move the source question back outside the repeat section.
