Description

This workflow creates a customizable form with a dynamic dropdown field that automatically updates its options from an external data source.

How it works

The workflow polls an external data source (Google Sheets in this example) at regular intervals
New values are processed and formatted for the dropdown
The form automatically updates with the new dropdown options

Set up steps

Configure your data source:

Default setup uses Google Sheets
replace with credentials for your sheet
set up the update frequency
Or modify to use any other data source (API, database, etc.)

Adjust the form configuration:

Customize the form title and description
Add or modify form fields as needed
The template includes the dropdown field by default

Connect form submissions:

Use the "Execute Workflow" node to process form submissions

This template provides a foundation for creating dynamic forms that stay synchronized with your data sources, making it ideal for situations where dropdown options need to reflect current data.
