## Code

```php
$wpide_cf7_choice_field = 'menu-department'; // Name of the select or radio field.
// Option value => URL.
$wpide_cf7_choice_urls  = array(
    'Sales'   => '/thank-you-sales/',
    'Support' => '/thank-you-support/',
);

add_action( 'wp_footer', function () use ( $wpide_cf7_choice_field, $wpide_cf7_choice_urls ) {
    if ( ! wp_script_is( 'contact-form-7', 'enqueued' ) ) {
        return;
    }

    $urls = array_map( 'esc_url_raw', $wpide_cf7_choice_urls );
    ?>
<script>
document.addEventListener( 'wpcf7mailsent', function ( event ) {
    var field = <?php echo wp_json_encode( $wpide_cf7_choice_field ); ?>;
    var urls = <?php echo wp_json_encode( $urls ); ?>;
    ( event.detail.inputs || [] ).forEach( function ( input ) {
        var name = input.name.replace( /\[\]$/, '' );
        if ( name === field && urls[ input.value ] ) { window.location.href = urls[ input.value ]; }
    } );
}, false );
</script>
    <?php
} );
```

## Notes

Set the field name and map each option value to a URL; options you do not list keep the normal on-page message.
