To address one of the top user asks for Microsoft Forms, we are releasing the email notification for new responses. Forms designers can now go to "Settings" and enable this feature by checking "Email notification of each response". The forms designers will receive an email notification each time a new response is submitted.

    Except it's not always the author of the form that needs to be notified. How about being able to enter an email address or a distribution list to receive notifications. It would also be nice to be able to include the details of the submission in the email itself. 

  • I agree with Ivan, connectors/Webhooks are the way to go. I use Forms in Flows, and the hourly polling is frustrating.

    cool, though I wish more Office 365 Services would adopt the Notification Service of Office 365 in general in addition to email notifications.
