I get the error The set of choices must be unique. What to do?

The set of choices must be unique error error appears on single choice, multiple choices and dropdown fields.  The actual text of the error is pretty self-explanatory. It appears when choices have the same structure.

When this happens?

  • when you have two or more identical options. In our example, Choice 1 is listed twice.

The set of choices must be unique

Each choice is related to a column in the Submissions table based on an identification number. If choices are identical so is the identification number.
