Group forms and team collaboration

We received a lot of  feedback from people who want to work with their colleagues on forms that can be accessed and managed by all team members. Now, you can easily create Office 365 group forms directly in the Forms portal (forms.office.com)!

 

Quickly access group forms

On the Forms portal page, in the “Group forms” tab, you’ll see all the forms you’ve recently accessed.

 

 

Create a new form in your group

Click the arrow next to “Recent group forms” and pick the group in which you want to create a new form. Any team member in this group will have full control (view, edit, and manage) over any group forms.

 

 

Click on the "…" in the upper right corner of any form card to see copy or delete a form options.

 

What is an Office 365 Group?

It’s a place in which you can collaborate with your colleagues and share resources. For more details, see learn about Office 365 Groups.

 

What is an Office 365 Group form?

It’s a form that belongs to a specific Office 365 group in which all team members of that group can view and edit it. You can create Office 365 group forms in the Forms portal (forms.office.com), SharePoint modern team sites, and Microsoft Teams.

 

Does Forms have external guest support for Office 365 Group?

Not at this time, but we do have this item on our list of future feature improvements.

 

How many Office 365 Group forms can I create?

You and your team can create up to 200 forms (cumulative) for each Office 365 group.

We’d love to hear from you! Let us know what you think via this survey.

    Click '...' on top-right of the group form card, you can copy or delete the form.

  • I can create and make us of group forms - but how do I clean up? How can I delete a group form?

    Have you switched to the group view which you would like to create a group form belong to it?

    In 'Recent group forms', you could access the group forms which you recently used, but you could not create new group form here.

    Please click on 'Recent group forms' and choose a group to access, then you should be able to see the ability of create new group form.

    Hi there!

    Something goed wrong from the Forms Portal, trying to enter the new Group Forms.

    I found a workaround though, that might help fixing the bug:

    1. I open the Forms portal

    2. I click on this "SilentSignIn" URL (see below)

    3. I go back to the Forms Portal tab and press the GroupForms button: now it works.
    4. Change from "Recent Forms" to your desired Team or Group.
    5. Now you can create a Form or Quiz.

    Don't ask me why...

    I see this post and got an email from the Microsoft Uservoice and went to Forms in my Office 365 Enterprise account and went to the group forms tab and the ability to create new forms is not there.  Very disappointing.
