Code Block
BA_setActionTitle("Country");

string[] countries = {"USA", "Canada", "The Netherlands"};
BA_createSelectList("Country", countries, "", false, true, "Select the country where you are based");

BA_setExecuteButtonText("Next");

In the action script of the button we need to get the value from the screen and save it into an auxiliary value:

Code Block
string country = BA_getSingleValue(argv, "Country");
BA_setBlitzAttribute("country", country);

After a user selects a country, they should be selecting a further filtering parameter – department. In this case, the screen script should look like this:

Code Block
BA_setActionTitle("Department");

string[] departments = {"HR", "Sales", "IT"};
BA_createSelectList("Department", departments , "" ,false, true, "Select the department that best applies for your request");

BA_setExecuteButtonText("Next");

In the action script of the first step, we need to get the value from the screen and save it into an auxiliary value:

Code Block
string department = BA_getSingleValue(argv, "Department");
BA_setBlitzAttribute("department", department);

The last screen provides a list of users that are in the selected country and work in the selected department.
Thus, the select script will consider the values set in the previous screens.

Code Block
BA_setActionTitle("User");

string country = BA_getBlitzAttribute("country");
string office = BA_getBlitzAttribute("department");

string[] users;
string[] usersInDepartment = usersInGroups(department);

for (string user in usersInDepartment) {
    if (getUserProperty(user, "country") == country) {
        users = addElement(users, user);
    }
}

BA_createSelectList("User", users, "", false, true, "Select the person to help you");

In the action script, we only set the selected value as the assignee:

Code Block
string user = BA_getSingleValue(argv, "User");
assignee = user;

...

For this example, after you click the main button, you'll get a succession of the following screens:

Image Removed

Image Removed

...

After the last screen executes, the assignee of the current issue will be set to the value selected in the User field - "josh" in this case.
