Warning: This is an advanced user field that requires working knowledge of JSON as well as online file hosting.

Our customer support team cannot help customers structure your JSON file - this is something your organization must do to use the feature.

This field is used when you might have a multiple choice list of items that exceed our character limit (I.e. 50+ items to select from within one question). This Dynamic Option can be added in the page builder and it uses an external json file to drive the content of the field.

(Examples: Wanting an extended list of multiple choice options that's longer than our character limit allows).
