Is there a way to reorder statements in a likert scale matrix?
I am a Forms newbie. I've created a question that contains a likert scale matrix, where people will be asked to rate a list of statements on a likert scale. I'd like to reorder the list of statements and for the life of me can't figure out how to do that. I can see how to delete a statement, but I really don't want to have to delete the statements and start over. Seems like there should be an easy way to either a) insert a statement, or b) change the order of statements. Anyone have any suggestions? Many thanks, Kathy
Microsoft forms and external upload files possible?
Good afternoon, We as a company want to create forms that our customers can fill in with the data we need. Like plans and technical drawings. I hoped that it would be possible to create these forms, but when i try to add the upload file question I need to change the settings to only internal. Is there no possibility to create forms that have the request of uploading files from external parties we send the link to? Kind regards, Carina
Capture Edited Form Submission
Hello. I have created a Power automate to capture the response when a form is submitted. We allow the users to edit the from after submission, sometimes they don't have all the info at first submission. Does anyone know how to capture the resubmission of the form after the user edits it. The Excel sheet that the form is linked to does get updated with the resubmission but I cannot use this to trigger an alert for the edit. I am trying to avoid linking the form to Sharepoint list just to capture the change. Ideally I would like to trigger a workflow directly from the resubmission of the form. Thanks
Merging questions from multiple forms into one form / points per option
Hi, I've been pushing for greater use of office 365 across my school but one area that is really slowing progress is the inability to copy questions between forms. This is useful for larger assessments based on topic tests and also tackling student misconceptions (copying questions they've scored poorly on in the past into a new quiz). Students also get very frustrated with multi-answer questions and getting 1 option wrong means they will get 0 marks for the whole question. I have a couple of ideas for this: A similar system to quizizz where you can navigate other forms and directly copy/drag questions into your new form Similar to the above with an option to sort by % of correct answers When you select 'multiple answers' for a form, move the points next to each option. Then a student getting 3/4 of the options would get 3 points rather than 0 I'm happy to show you student/staff feedback across my school to show how valuable this functionality would be to educational institutions. Thank-you for reading
This form can't be distributed as it is asking for personal or sensitive information
Two issues, one with what the system flagged, and the second with how the system is not designed to help you correct the error. First Issue: It took me an hour of clicking in form fields and making minor text changes to get the system to momentarily clear the error and allow me to make a copy of the form for rough cut deletion of the offending section. That was a pain and part of what I will get into in part 2. When I finally had a copy I could work with, I deleted sections until I got to the question “EA Passes” with the subtext “how many Early Access Passes does your crew need”. This was the offending question. EA Passes. I changed it to EA Games, EA Medical, EA Social Security… these were all fine. But “EA Passes”. Flagged. This is not sensitive info, you may wish to have your system let that one go. Second Issue: and this is user satisfaction related. The system flags and makes the entire form unusable rather than flagging the individual question or phrase. Having a helpful popup showing what is flagged and making the form usable without this question would be wonderful! Especially considering the fact that the term flagged was not clear or even remotely sensitive in nature. Thank you for considering 1. The flagging of “EA Passes”, I changed this to Early Access Passes to get past it, and 2. Some help fixing/flagging the issue/phrase rather than dynamiting the form and forcing you to delete most if not all of your work to try to find the issue.Clicking on an email address in a drop down list opens up Outlook
I have a form with one of the fields being Email Address (~100 entries). When our users get to this drop down, the list is shown as a hyperlink list of email addresses. Naturally, when they click on a selection, it opens Outlook rather than selecting the choice. The workaround right now is to click on the space after the email address. Is there a way to disable the hyperlinks so that the emails show as plain text?
“This form does not accept responses at the moment” / Session ID: xxxxxxx Correlation ID: yyyyyyy
Hello, We sent out a mailing from our email marketing solution, containing a link to a Microsoft form. The form is configured in such way that - everyone can respond to it, - whether inside or outside of our organization/tenant, - without the need to have a Microsoft account. - therre's no expiration date or whatsoever But upon receipt, it appears that : People outside our domain (on mailboxes like outlook, gmail, yahoo …) can access the form. Most people in our domain/tenant can access the form, whether they are connected to their MS account or not (tests done in normal AND private browsing). However, some of them, whether connected to their MS accounts or not, whether in normal mode or private browsing, can't access the form and get the following error: “This form does not accept responses at the moment” / Session ID: xxxxxxx Correlation ID: yyyyyyy In some cases, these people are even redirected to a Microsoft login screen. All of these tests were also conducted outside of our environment/tenant, the results are identical. I can see from browsing different forums in the MS 365 Community, that this bug seems to be known and longstanding? Please kindly get back to me with some resolution tips. Regards,
How to reveal anonymous submissions in Microsoft Forms
Hi all, I'm relatively new to using Microsoft Forms, and I did not know that the default setting for MS Forms submissions was to show user feedback as "anonymous." My form is a simple yes or no one question form, and I would like to know who responded. I've seen that the solution is to only allow responses within your organization. But is there any way to view who the anonymous user was after the fact so I don't have to ask people to resubmit their responses? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank You
