The Dropdown and Multi-Select List elements within forms can have their value lists populated dynamically from automation array data:

As an example, this automation uses two "parse array elements from text" actions to emit arrays that will be used for the value lists in a dropdown and a multi-select list:

The arrays are mapped as inputs to the dropdown and multi-select list elements in the "await form submission" action:

When the form loads, the elements are then dynamically populated with the mapped input array data from the automation:
