🤝Dynamic response based on respondent selections

It refers to the process of generating different response based on the options selected by the respondents. This approach allows for a more personalized and efficient experience for respondents.

Why you need this

• Save time by streamlining processes and reduce errors. Form admins no longer have to spend time cleaning and arranging responses, as this process can be automated.

As there are many different types of forms that may require such automation, we will focus solely on demonstrating the use of the dropdown field from FormSG. To follow this guide, make sure that your dropdown field contains at least two options.

Send unique response to respondents based on the options they've selected.
