Hi Sean,
You can use the steps under Integration > Database > your db, to fetch the list before your form and pass it in using DataName as the List Input Source, or create a flow that fetches the list and use Flow as the List Input Source. Heres documentation that shows you how to use a flow as the List Input Source: https://documentation.decisions.com/creating-drop-down-menu-options-from-flow-output/
