Introduction
This week’s challenge is a bit different; you have two options!
Imagine you’re creating a workbook showing off all the cool features and functionalities to your coworkers and want to provide a curated list of Sigma’s help documentation. In this challenge, you’ll create an embedded documentation element enabling the end users to choose a topic and see the documentation right there!
There are two options because, like many things in Sigma & data, there are multiple solutions. Feel free to do either or both options as long as you follow the requirements.
Have fun!

Need access to Sigma?
Note: You will only have view access to WOW Workbooks, Folders, and Workspaces, not edit access. Please create your WOW Workbooks under “My Documents.” We suggest creating a folder to organize all your workbooks.
Requirements
For Both Options:
- Create a single control element letting end users select what documentation topic they would like to see
- Function Index: https://help.sigmacomputing.com/docs/function-index
- Join Types: https://help.sigmacomputing.com/docs/join-types
- What’s New in Sigma: https://help.sigmacomputing.com/changelog
For Option 1:
- Limited to 3 elements, including the title element!
For Option 2:
- This solution should accommodate any number of items on the Input Table list without needing to adjust any formulas when new items are added
- Hint: There might be a hidden column(s) in the Input Table 😉 & my solution has 4 elements total (including the title element)
