Accessing Data of a FormArray of FormGroup

so I've got this FormBuilder setup:

surveyForm: FormGroup;
ngOnInit(): void {
     this.surveyForm = this.formBuilder.group({
       'surveyTitle': new FormControl(null),
       'surveyDescription': new FormControl(null),
       'questionsDetail': this.formBuilder.array([
         this.formBuilder.group({
           'questionType': new FormControl('mcq'),
           'question': new FormControl(null),
           'choices': this.formBuilder.array([])
         })
       ])
     });
    };

and i tried to access the control of choices using this code:

 onAddChoice()
  {
    const control = new FormControl(null, Validators.required);
    this.surveyForm.controls.questionsDetail.control.push(control);
  }

and i get this error

quote Property 'control' does not exist on type 'AbstractControl'.

If someone can help me, that would be great.

Thanks in advance.

It should be controls not control

this.surveyForm.controls.questionsDetail.controls.push(control);

And I'd recommend you to use addControl method of formArray control, it is more verbose.

(this.surveyForm.get('questionsDetail') as FormArray).addControl(control);
