Conditional forms on ideas portal

Since I have more than one idea category, I have custom fields that are associated and useful for specific categories of ideas. Currently I need to put all of them on the input form and display layout for all ideas. This makes the form unnecessarily complicated, overwhelming and leads to confusion. I would like to be able to use conditional logic to display specific fields based on idea category or some other field. 

I would also like to be able to have a different version of the ideas portal for internal stakeholders vs. external users and customers; the latter group should have a much simpler view. So I would like to display certain fields based on user type, or better yet use different portals where I can expose a different set of custom fields in the layout.

    It is now possible to create dynamic forms in ideas portals! Customize a multi-step form with conditional rules to determine which questions to show or skip based on previous answers — available with Ideas Advanced.

      I agree that this should be available for the Enterprise+ plan.

      I'd really like to see conditional field logic in my initiatives layouts - it would be wildly useful there in ensuring that teams only see the fields they need, making the product far more useable and ensure better data overall.

      Big thumbs up on this one from my internal customers. Conditional logic would improve idea submission and routing for everyone across the idea lifecycle. Glad to see this has moved to Future Consideration!

      I would love to see this option added to Aha. At the moment we create create requirements and based on the type the next steps vary. At the moment we need a large choices list to cover all the options which is confusing for our users

      if this would make it possible to create branching in idea submission form, I am all for it. Making it possible to dive deeper on idea forms by adding branching questions is a need I have today.

      yes, please add this a higher priority. We are beginning to use intake forms and discovered we can only have one form for each workspace. We have a use case where we have 7 different forms, depending on request type. We now have to restructure to create a parent line and 7 workspaces just to accommodate the different ideas forms.

      With more and more custom fields being used to capture relevant product data, the need for conditional fields is high.

      This proposed feature would benefit the collection of additional idea feedback that would enhance the detail submitted for roadmap consideration. It would reduce the amount of back and forth discussions about the idea and keep the associated information with the idea where it belongs.

      definitely agree that a big benefit to having multiple portals in a workspace is access to different audiences but even more to be able to solicit different information from those different parties. this idea has been out there for a while. would love to see this implemented.

      Bumping this to try and get some focus from the Aha team. The Aha adoption from our 150+ sales team has been great. As a result they are pushing the Product Management team to use the portal for requirements capture on various topics. Because of the technical nature of our business, our current portal form is very bespoke and calls for a lot of mandatory information. We can use categories to make the requests more focused but regardless of the ask the form remains the same and becomes totally irrelevant in most cases. This means that we would currently have to add another portal for these requests just becasue we need a simplier form. Our response to the sales teams at the moment is "Aha doesn't support us being able to use the portal for different requests where different information is needed". This is not good press for something that is deemed as basic functionality across many applications.

      Ditto those who have said this is a need as we go forward with our plans to roll out ideation within Aha!.  Someone in our working group expressed that a lack of this feature is like working in the last century. I've used it in other ideation platforms for years. I know Aha! is more than ideas, but ideas impact our roadmap.

      We are in desperate need of this. Please can you provide an update... rasied nearly 2 years ago with 84 people voting and 15 comments... Clearly this is something that the Aha community are in need of.

      Has there been any change with the roadmap and consideration for this functionality since 2017?

      I agree with the aspect of having different fields displayed for internal vs external audiences. Idea capture from multiple audiences is one of our key use cases. We're considering purchasing UserVoice instead. See also: APP-I-4184, 3170 and 5433.

    idea submission logic

    It would be really nice to see some logic on the ideas submission. I'm thinking the basics could be adding your idea name, then a dropdown for a department or a certain request. This could then reload a specific form depending on the type of reque...
