QuickChoice Conditional Visibility with Required set to true

[MichaelMinnekeer]

Having an issue specifically with the quickchoice where if I use conditional visibility and required at the same time and when the component is not visible it is still coming up as required

This contradicts the documentation: Screen input components hidden by conditional visibility aren’t required when a user runs the flow, even if Required is set to {!$GlobalConstant.True}. When the component appears to the user, it’s treated as required.
https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sf.flow_considerations_design_conditional_visibility.htm&type=5

How is the required attribute being applied in this custom component? Is this something salesforce exposes or is this a custom thing developed for quickchoice and that is why the expected functionality is not matching documentation

I'm not able to reproduce this behavior using version 2.34 of the component.

I was running

• FlowActionsBasePack version 2.29
• FlowScreenComponentsBasePack version 2.1.6

I have now upgraded from https://unofficialsf.com/flow-action-and-screen-component-basepacks/ to

• FlowActionsBasePack version 2.32
• FlowScreenComponentsBasePack version 2.5.7

I am still having the same issue, if I mark the quickchoice component as required it is coming up with validation error even if the component is not visible "You must make a selection in: Owner to continue





"

Where is the value being set for {!ClientRelation_Choice_selectedLabel}? If that is the output of another component, could you please try manually setting the output to a variable and using that variable in your Component Visibility settings?

It is directly referencing another quickchoice component from a previous screen, manually assigning it to a variable fixed the issue though!

Does the flow runtime deal with variables differently regarding conditional visibility vs validation? As the conditional visibility was working as expected just the validation had the issue

I am Facing an issue while displaying this component conditionally based on previous component input.

In the above image 'Country' is a picklist type quickchoice component and based on it's value, I have another quickchoice component that will be displayed conditionally on the same screen.

It is working fine if the user populates this field without missing it. If the user misses this field and clicks on 'Next', then it gives the required error. Then if the user selects the value for which another component should be visible, in this case, the component is not displaying at all.
