Element is not an option in workflow

So this is the second time I ran into this issue while building. I clearly have a drop down on my page that I can not reference in the workflow.

Also, the first time this happen is when I had a custom state on a group (Grp social accts main) that was in a Repeating Group. When I tried to reference that group, it was not an option. As you can see the group is on my page but it is not an option as a “only when” statement.

Is this a bug or how bubble is set up. If it ia how bubble is set up, in what cases will it not show up/be an option vs when it will.



You can’t refer to elements inside a repeating group from elements that are outside it.

The repeating group will duplicate itself many times and the elements that are inside it will be also duplicated, making impossible to determine which one of the elements you are referencing to. That is why.

There are plugins that allow you to access elements that are inside repeating groups - I have used both of these with good success:

RepeatingGroup Tools (BDK)
