How to map selected radio button's text to backend service request

[Zaki Mohzani]

I have a radio list and a button to submit the result to the backend service.

So the code does the following:

1. Populate the radio list from backend service

2. User selects the radio button of his choice

3. Clicks on a button

4. a 'create service' runs to submit the selection to the backend service.

   However, instead of the selected radio button's text being sent, 'Item 1' shows up on the collection.

   How can I map the selected radio's text instead of whatever is being sent.

Hi, working on it. I'll update.

Please check whether you have correct mapping

Selected property of Radio Group component keeps selected element value . We tested - it works with the mapping showing above.

Thanks guys, that worked.

The mistake I did was to map data from the DB to the radio buttons where only the 'Text' field was assigned.

To fix it, I made sure the data from the DB also mapped to the 'Value' field.

And how to do it the other way around? To map the selected value from DB to the radio buttons?

in my example: I have an EDIT USER = Gender (male/female). I can not figure out how to set the correct button selected when retrieving the current "gender" from DB. Any suggestions?

Hi Tom,

Create mapping to JavaScript variable (if you need to store the value use localStorage) and add for it JavaScript code that looks like the following:
precode
if (value == "female") {
Appery( "mobileradiobutton_female" ).setAttr("checked", "checked");
} else {
Appery( "mobileradiobutton_male" ).setAttr("checked", "checked");
}/code/pre
