How to get value from radio button and store in a variable

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Super User 2024 Season 1

Hi there,

 

I'm using an adaptive card to display a form on the chatbot and there is a choice set in the form as a radio button.

 

I want to know if anyone managed to store the value of the radio button in a variable using Bot Framework Composer, so them I can pass through PVA.

 

See example below:

 

2022-04-05 09.30.26 adaptivecards.io 631c4a22f0e1.png

So, I want to store the value "Red" in a variable on Bot Framework Composer, so I can pull it from PVA.

 

Thanks,

 

Fernando

    Hey

     

    you need to go to the parent topic and look at the dialog.result scope. 

    in there you can create output variables. 

    Check this post’s solution for more info - https://powerusers.microsoft.com/t5/Bot-Extensibility/Pass-variable-from-Bot-Framework-back-to-PVA/m-p/1386788#M70

     

    Please mark this topic as solved if I have helped.

    Hey,

     

    I got that, but the radio button is inside an action where slide down to show the other fields, like this example:

    https://adaptivecards.io/samples/ShowCardWizard.html

    with the radio buttons like these ones: https://adaptivecards.io/samples/InputsWithValidation.html

     

    So, my issue is to setup the "=turn.activity.value" for the radio button variable and also to assign that variable to the "dialog.result" .

     

    I can see the variable when exporting to PVA, but the values are not passing through.

     

    Cheers,


    Fernando

    Hey Fernando

     

    You can set the turn.activity.value to a user.XXX property and then use the set property to set dialog.result.XXX to user.XXX

    Hi Monkeyman,

     

    Below is my adaptive card and if you place it on here: https://adaptivecards.io/designer/, you will see how it works, but I believe the values of the variables inside the "actions" must have a different path on turn.activity.value.XXX as simply calling the user.XXX, the value is not passing through. If I take all the actions out and place all the form in a single structure, it goes fine.

    Unfortunately that schema is not working for me when I put it in Designer | Adaptive Cards

    It's working now.

     

    Copy and paste as a card payload on a blank card.

     

    That was because the line below was as a single line and not on the same line than the label.

     

     

    (E.g. 128Gb, 256Gb, 1Tb)",
