Power Automate Question
Hello!
We are building out a Microsoft Form that will be used as a data gathering tool for our business unit. We'd like to create a form with a dropdown menu as the first element that would branch into additional forms to gather data based on the service the client chooses. Each branched form may have questions that repeat on different forms ex. How long do you need our help? may appear on 4 separate branched forms. Our engineer is new to Power Automate and is getting stuck on the logic buildout. He told us we can't have repeating questions. As a result, our form is not user friendly and it can be confusing.
Can any Power Automate experts help? Any guidance to build the logic for this time of form would be welcomed! Thanks in advance!

LauraMatovina you mentioned branching to a different form; you can't do that , only to different sections and/or questions in the current form.
Where you have questions that repeat in each section you need to differentiate them in some way, otherwise it becomes almost impossible to select the correct one in Power Automate. So in the question branched to we add the section name at the beginning of the question, e.g [IT] How long do you need our help for?
