     - Description
   * - Physicaltest
     - physicaltest_id
     - remote_lookup
     - —
     - ✓
     - One or more physical test records to query, selected by name via remote lookup from the d3VIEW physicaltests database; required — at least one test must be chosen.
   * - Get Unique Response Count
     - unique_response_count
     - select
     - auto
     - ✓
     - Whether to compute the count of unique response types present in the selected test(s); set to 'Yes' to populate num_responses, or leave as default 'No' to skip that computation.
