AWX Survey 'dynamic' options?

Hello, community !

I’m using AWX Survey with multiple variables. But i need to improve my AWX Survey to be able to populate survey choices that depend on prior survey choices.
For example if my first survey variable is called: region1, the second survey choice should be: A, B or C.
But if my first survey choice is other - region2, the second survey choice should be: D, E or F.
As i know AWX Survey still don’t have a thing called Dynamic/programmatical choices. But maybe there’re a way to somehow input a static structured format, for example, dict of lists, like:
dict1 = {'region1': [A, B, C], 'region2':[D, E, F]} ?

Hi,

Actually this is not possible with AWX.
As far as I know there are some issues for enhancement on this topic but are not prioritized.

Something that will bel also very interested is the usage of dynamic survey based on db query or something more complex that dependent choice.

I hope that team will evaluate those things.

hahhaha yet it’s a pretty alive thread lol

I’m just investigating a service catalog like service now for non awx user (so like legali team, PM od other).

I see squest from HP and AnsibleForms Docs - Graphical User Interface.
In the past RH will try to do that with GitHub - ansible/pinakes but seems that hti Technical preview will not become ready for production, probably due to agreement with servicenow :pensive:.

Squest is good but is very poor in terms of organization concept (no segregation of portfolio/service) .

I need to test ansibleforms…

That ansibleforms link is quite interesting.

I originally couldn’t see the need for programmable/dynamic surveys since dynamic inventories would be able to provide what I thought was needed, but after looking through that webpage, I really like the idea behind it.

Very useful to have.

Hello everybody.
I’m new to awx.
Was it planned in the awx project, the addition of the following features?
Add in the survey questionnaire, a feature to transmit a bash environment variable type $1 if the workflow must be applied to an inventory before a playbook. This would allow injecting a variable into an inventory script instead of an extra_vars variable. like this:

Since the dynamic survey option is not directly available in AWX, has anyone used some frontend form or web UI to populate the survey with the needed answers?

There’s a project out there call https://ansibleforms.com/

Thanks! I started looking at that yesterday….any other solutions as well?

In addition to all of you guys, I wonder if it is possible to populate options for a multiple choice question with the output of another template?
