Hello - is there a way to change the unique ID based on an answer to a form questions? For instance if some one chooses 6th grade I would like the number to start with a 6, etc.
Thanks!

I'm sorry, but it is not possible in the widget. You may consider utilizing our random value generator widget instead and copy its value to another field by conditional logic then add the grade value based on the selection.
