The Branches tab shows a summary of the skip patterns contained in the survey. Set up skip patterns by editing the answer options for the question you want to branch off. Skip patterns will be displayed on the Branches tab but cannot be edited on the Branches tab. When actively editing a survey, you should check here periodically for errors or warnings. You must remove all responses before you can edit skip patterns, conditions, or branches. Remove responses under the Edit Survey/Details tab. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters: ``` GET https://docs.shiftiq.com/help/surveys/configure-survey-details/branches-tab.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
