@Matthias Amazing Tech - Can you clarify what you mean exactly? When you say grab the values from a choice field and populate a dropdown, what exactly is it that you are attempting to accomplish?

Are you wanting the selections in the choice field to impact how the drop-down list is populated like a filter scenario, or do you want to literally populate the drop down with what is selected in the choice field?

The goal is unclear.

Hello ScottCasIT,

I only want to popluate all the values in a dropdown field from a choice field in a sharepoint list.

I’m not sure if that is possible in K2?

 

Best regards

Matthias

So, the choice list in SharePoint not smart forms? 

If I remember correctly there may be a Smart Object that is created that will be representative of the hard coded choice values in SharePoint. You could then use that smart object to populate your dropdown list in a Smart Form.
