Hello,
I am looking for a way to use MS forms to query an external database, and based on a choice in a previous field, it will populate data related to that previous field.
So for example, if the responder puts in a specific dealer identifer, it will return all inventory related to that dealer identifier. Then the responder may select one of these queried pieces of data as an answer. The data source would come from dataverse/ Dynamics 365.
If their a way to do this in MS forms? OR we also use Formsite.
Thanks!
No, you can not have a dynamic fields for MS Forms.
You will have to make a Power App. Or use a SharePoint List Forms which is basically a power app glued to a SharePoint list.
Making a Power App isn't incredibly difficult. But knowing how to do some specific functions can take time to learn.
If you want to make a power app form, I recommend starting with a SharePoint list form because it helps keep the data connected while you learn how to make the interactive fields. Once you get the basic understanding of a power app with a SharePoint list form, you can adapt it to use your external database as a source.
