How do I create branching logic based only on an event?

An unsupported work around to utilize branching logic based on an event only.

UPDATE: This can now be accomplished with the event-name Smart Variable. Just use something like: [event-name]= "event_2_arm_1"

You can create branching logic based only on an event using the numeric event ID rather than the event name.

Note: Only a REDCap Administrator or Superuser can save this type of unsupported logic syntax.

Note: REDCap will show errors when attempting to save the logic and the "Test logic with a record" feature will not work and thus will have to be tested manually.

How do I find the numeric event ID?

You can get the numeric event ID from the URL by going to the Add/Edit Records, selecting a record and clicking on the associated circle for the event you want. Then, in the URL, you'll see something like ‘event_id=19401’. That is what you will use in your calculation.

Important: Be mindful when using this technique. When copying or moving a project using this logic, the logic will have to be changed to reflect the correct new even ID as it will be different in the copied project.
