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

To change whether a question is required or not, go to ‘Configure’ to the right of the question field and toggle "Question is required" on/off.
