    Hi -

    I am wondering if I can set a field to be required only if another field is filled out. Is this possible?

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. Let me walk you through how to conditionally make a field required based on the answer from another field using the Enable/Require/Mask Field conditional logic:

    1. Go to the Settings tab of the Form Builder.
    2. Open the Conditions page from the left menu.
    3. Select the Enable/Require/Mask Field option.How to conditionally require some form fields? Image 1 Screenshot 30
