Use records in a parent project for a list in select_one question in another project

I saw a post asking this (or similar) from April 2023, but as it’s been 18+ months I wanted to see if it’s now an available feature.

I have a parent project which is a list of intervention beneficiaries. In a child project, I want to be able to have a select_one question which shows a list of all the submissions from the parent project in a particular question, e.g. surname. When this is selected, I can then use dynamic data attachments to have other fields populate.

Is this now an available feature?

@ajkew, did you mean the parent project has a text question that captures a list of a particular variable? Then in the child project you wish to have that list (from the parent project) be a select_one choice? Feel free to correct me if I understood you differently.

Yes that’s exactly right, the parent project has a text field (e.g. surname), which in the child project I want to be able to use as a list for choices in a select_one question.
