Hello community, I tried to find my answer but no luck, so please allow me to ask.

Is it possible to provide answer choices via API?

For example,

I would like the respondent to choose multiple answer options which are provided by our backend, so the questionnaire is always up-to-date when it comes to viable answers.

Thank you in advance for any hint.

Hello @JakubD 

I am afraid it is not possible to populate answer choices dynamically. However you could use the Create API to update your form (and answer choices) when it gets updated in your backend. Or you could run a scheduled script (eg. cronjob) to do the update via API.

Hope this helps.
