Make Feature Flag required based on another Feature Flag in Flagsmith

In Flagsmith, is there a way to tie Feature Flags together in a way that if I enable Feature Flag "A", and that requires Feature Flag "B", then the user is warned that Flag "B" is required?

Right now, Flagsmith doesnt have dependent flags. We do have plans to implement them (as of Feb 2024) which you can track here.

As a work around, you can achieve dependency in code by writing a helper function that checks the state of Flag A and Flag B.

Having said that, we do generally regard flag dependencies as something of an anti-pattern; it adds complexity and can sometimes obscure the resultant application behaviour.

We do occasionally have folk who present a use case that would help with dependent flags, hence its inclusion on the roadmap.
