I need to add a dynamic drop down to a form using FT SQLdata. I know it can be done because I see it in the form data (FT backend) which has been user submitted. I am still new to the API and the new way field options are configured. Any help would be appreciated.

Hey Bwaye,
Interesting! So what's the content you want to appear in the dropdown? A list of information pulled from multiple submissions (e.g. names or something), or something else?

Would adding an export type work?
Something like:
<select>
<option value=""></option>
{foreach from=$submissions item=submission name=row}
<option value="{$submission.columnname}">{$submission.displayname}</option>
{/foreach}
</select>
You would need another form with these options on it though, and would have to keep updating the field groups...

Good idea. If it's submission content based, a custom export type like Steven suggest would work well.
