Reducing selections based on previous answer
Hello,
I am trying to have Question 2's selections change depending on the answer of question one. The reason is i don't want to make a bunch of different columns for each possibility. For instance:
Question 1:
A, B, C
Question 2:
1, 2, 3
If you select 'C' for Question 1, I want Question 2 to only display '3' as an option. Is that possible?
Thanks

Hi @Dezmond
I see you marked @Andrée Starå's response as not answering your question.
The solution of having multiple columns that appear/disappear as fields in a form is what I would also suggest at this time. There isn't a way to make the actual options of the dropdown appear/disappear, you would need to make the entire field be conditional.
Please provide your feedback to the Product team through this form, here.

Hi @Dezmond
I hope you're well and safe!
- Yes, with a Form and the Form Logic feature, but you'll need to add multiple so-called helper columns to make it work.
- Another option could be the Premium App, Dynamic View. Is that an option?
I hope that helps!
Be safe and have a fantastic week!
