[SOLVED] Best method to change Joomla User Group when a Select Field is saved?

[SOLVED] Best method to change Joomla User Group when a Select Field is saved? was created by ThePiston
I've got a Select Field with options and when one is selected I need to not only change a user group but delete one as well first.

These are the options in the CB select field:
{
Northern
Southern
Eastern
Western
}

I will need to run this query when the Profile is saved in order to delete the current User Group in question (only 4 options represented by 23,24,33,34)
DELETE IGNORE FROM `#__user_usergroup_map` 
WHERE `#__user_usergroup_map`.`user_id` = [USER_ID]
AND `#__user_usergroup_map`.`group_id` IN (23,24,33,34)

and also run this query afterwards, but I need to set the CB field options = to actual user group values somehow like this:
data= {
northern: 003;
western: 004;
eastern: 005;
western: 006;
}
INSERT IGNORE INTO `jos_user_usergroup_map` (`user_id`, `group_id`) VALUES ('[USER_ID]', 'OPTION_SELECTED');

Would this be something the CB Query field can do or maybe CB Auto Actions?

Thank you

You can do that using CB Auto Actions. Check out the tutorial below to get started.

www.joomlapolis.com/documentation/291-cb-auto-actions/tutorials/18237-cb-auto-actions-assigning-usergroup-based-on-cb-field-value

CB Auto Actions can Add, Remove, Replace, and even Create usergroups using its Usergroup action.

that sounds easier. If I want to allow multiple actions based on a multi-select field, would I need to add one AA per choice or can it all be done in one AA? From what I am reading, it looks like I have to create an AA for each choice in the multi-select field, correct?

Choice 1 -> Assign Joomla Group 1
Choice 2 -> Assign Joomla Group 2
Choice 3 -> Assign Joomla Group 3
Choice 4 -> Assign Joomla Group 4
Choice 5 -> Assign Joomla Group 5
Choice 6 -> Assign Joomla Group 6
Choice 7 -> Assign Joomla Group 7
Choice 8 -> Assign Joomla Group 8
Choice 9 -> Assign Joomla Group 9
Choice 10 -> Assign Joomla Group 1
Choice 11 -> Assign Joomla Group 11

You would need an auto action per choice, which is perfectly fine to do.
