Forms cannot be submitted unless all required fields have been answered, with the exception of questions hidden with conditional logic. When your forms have multiple pages, submitters can't proceed to the next page until all visible, required fields on the current page are answered.

To change whether a question is required, click the question to open the configuration panel and toggle "Question is required" on/off.

The "Question is required" toggle can be found in the configuration panel - accessed by clicking a question.

Can I use logic to show/hide pages while still making sure that all questions are required?
Questions will keep their required setting at all times, but if a question is not visible, then it won't be required.
How do I insert page breaks and section breaks (pagination & question branching)?
Use breaks to divide a form into either pages or sections that can be shown conditionally based on responses.
