Hi,

Is it possible to set questions to rank options, i.e.: from least to most important?

Yes and it’s really easy to do and easy for respondents.

Firstly your ‘questions’ are the items you want to rand and the answers are the ranks positions.  
You need the same number of each.

While this will work as a matrix question, it’s much nice to make this drag and drop ranking.  
At the bottom, choose the drag and drop layout option. The user can play around until they get the order they like the best.
