    I would like to populate the dropdown options in a question dynamically based on the answers provided to another question. Is this possible?

    Option 1

    Assuming your main question is a dropdown field, and you want to populate another dropdown field dynamically, you could make use of Dynamic Dropdowns widget.

    Option 2

    If your main question is NOT a dropdown field, then you could make use of conditionally showing or hiding the dropdown field based on the answer from the main question.
