Welcome to the ODK forum, @Cyril_Attie! We're glad you're here. When you get a chance, please introduce yourself on this forum thread. I'd also encourage you to add a picture as your avatar because it helps build community!
Is the survey you linked your full form? How do you get the list of comma-separated values - is it typed into the XLSForm file like that?
Hi @danbjoseph, we're getting it from a custom feature in our app. Thanks for the answer, I also posted on the https://community.kobotoolbox.org/ and after trying several different things, I could finally loop over the comma-separated values by copying the extracted value to a text answer with another custom feature. Otherwise the app returned the following error
“dependency cycles amongst the xpath in relevant/calculate"
