Is there a way to use Webflow's CMS data in a form select field without third-party tools or integrations?

Yes, it is possible to use Webflow's CMS data in a form select field without relying on third-party tools or integrations. Webflow's CMS provides a powerful and flexible content management system that allows you to create dynamic content and use that data in various ways on your website.

To utilize Webflow's CMS data in a form select field, you can make use of the Collection List feature. Here's a step-by-step guide:

1. Create a collection in the CMS section of your Webflow project. Add a field to the collection that will hold the options for your form select field. For example, if you are creating a select field for countries, create a Collection field named "Country Name" and enter the options as individual items.

2. Design and style your form using Webflow's built-in form elements. Add a select field where you want the options to be displayed.

3. Within the select field element, select "Dynamic" as the option type instead of "Static," which is the default. This will allow us to populate the options from the CMS collection.

4. Click on the dynamic field and choose the CMS collection you created in step 1.

5. Under "Field," select the field that contains the options for your select field. In our example, this would be the "Country Name" field.

6. Customize the design and appearance of your select field as per your requirements using Webflow's styling options.

Once you've completed these steps, the select field will be connected to your CMS collection, and the options will be dynamically populated based on the data in the CMS. Any changes or updates you make to the CMS collection's options will automatically reflect in the select field on your website.

By leveraging Webflow's CMS and dynamic content features, you can easily create interactive and data-driven forms without the need for external tools or integrations.
