Hi Al,
Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. I'm an AI assistant. I'll do my best to help you until someone from the support team is available.
Regarding the issue with the Dynamic Dropdown widget not displaying data properly in your form with a parent-child relationship, here’s how to ensure it is set up correctly:
- Add the Dynamic Dropdown widget to your form from the Widgets tab in Form Builder.
- Set up the Values in the widget settings by entering your list of items with proper nesting to create parent-child relationships. Use spaces to indent child options under their parents. For example:
Vertebrates
Warm-blooded
Dog
Cat
Cold-blooded
Goldfish - Choose the Separator character (comma, semicolon, or forward slash) that separates the values in the final submission.
- Click Update to save the widget settings.
Make sure your nested options are properly indented with spaces to reflect the parent-child hierarchy. Also, including a dot (.) as a choice can help display an empty "Please select" option initially.
If the widget still displays all data without filtering, double-check the nesting structure and spacing in the Values field.
Give it a try and let us know how it goes.

Dear Mary,
It is still showing me same. I below mentioned the screen shot for your reference.
Also I checked with other users as well. They also can see the data without the relationship.
