Hi Duhlaku,

Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. Our German Support agents are busy helping other Jotform users right now, so I'll try to help you in English using Google Translate, but you can reply in whichever language you feel comfortable using. Or, if you'd rather have support in German, let us know and we can have them do that. But, it might take a while until they're available again.

Now, coming back to your question, I’ll need a bit of time to look into this and work out a solution. I’ll get back to you as soon as I can.

Thanks for your patience and understanding, we appreciate it.

Hi Duhlaku,

After confirming this, I found that if you plan to repopulate an answer to a hidden dropdown field, the query parameter that you're currently using is wrong. Instead of using

?team=team1

it has to be

?team=Team%20PKM, ?team=Team%20Leverkusen, ?team=Team%20Essen

and so on.  Check out the screencast below to see my results:

Also, to make sure that these form field entries will show up in Jotform Tables, since it's hidden, make sure that your Clear Hidden Field Values is set to  Don't Clear. Let me show you how it's set up:

1. In Form Builder, in the orange navigation bar at the top of the page, click on Settings and then click on Show More Options.
2. Then, look for the Clear Hidden Field Values. 
3. Lastly, change the selection from Clear when submitted to Don't Clear.

Give it a try and let us know if you need any help.

Thenks that was what i needed, have a nice day
