Creation of folders within Forms
Hello, I know this has already been asked, but there has been no answer to satisfy everyone's need. It is very important that you allow users to create folders within forms to organize their Forms dashboard. The whole point of Office 365 and OneDrive is organization and Forms does not live up to this. Whether in business, or education, it is extremely important to be able to organize our documents, or in this case, Forms, so that we can easily find them. The search feature is good, but I, and most other Forms users, have so many forms that we don't always recall the name of the specific form that we need to either resend, or duplicate to share with another person, or institution. I work with 12 campuses and send survey forms on every training that I give. I am able to copy the same survey form, but I have to keep the results separate. If I could create a campus folder and inside a Survey folder, quiz folder, etc... this would make my life and others easier.Jesus MoralesJan 04, 2018Brass Contributor33KViews41likes42CommentsForms: Time input question
In Office 365 Forms, I am attempting to create an event request form. I do not appear to be able to add a question for TIME of Day. I see a template for DATE but not TIME. In Google Forms "include Time" is an option for Date Questions in the contextual sub-menu. Is there someplace to add this function perhaps that I am missing? Ultimately I would like to add a script to the form that would auto-create an Outlook Calendar event on a shared calendar at the date and time on the form submission.William MattisonSep 20, 2016Brass Contributor198KViews32likes91CommentsLimit number of responses on a form
It would be really useful to be able to retrict the number of responses to a form. I use microsoft forms as an ordering device for food and need to be able to limit the number of responses (in a similar way as setting the end time) It would also be extremely useful to get a notification when a form is completed and for the form filler to get a notification summary of how they have resonded.Erica SchwieningJun 18, 2017Brass Contributor250KViews31likes41CommentsPre-populate fields in Microsoft Forms via URL parameter?
Is there a way to pre-populate a field on a form in Microsoft Forms using a parameter that is attached to the form's URL? Idea/scenario behind this:We could send out personalized links to people from whom we'd like to gather some information, e.g. https://[my-form-url]?UserID=27 Result: When the receipient opens the link in the browser, the field "UserID" would already be filled with the value 27 without the need to enter the number manually. In SharePoint URL-parameters are quite common for many years, for example for filtering the content that is shown in certain web parts. I was wondering if Microsoft Forms can already handle a similar functionality. Any ideas/thoughts on this?SolvedRené FritschOct 05, 2017Iron Contributor353KViews26likes40CommentsNeed the ability for external users to upload files into MS Forms
Afternoon all, Our company has some lengthy bid tenders to carry out. MS forms is the perfect way for potential external suppliers to fill in the form and for us to capture the repsonses. However external users cannot use the upload file feature in MS Forms. Why is this? Is there a way to switch it on? If not do we know if its a feature that is likely to be implemented soon?Rob_PidgleyJul 12, 2022Brass Contributor159KViews21likes83CommentsForms: Notification when answers have been given
It would be great if you could choose a notification setting. Eg. send a notification(email) for each answer or send a notification after 20 (or any given number) answers have been given.SolvedCaroline Bjellekjær MatthiassenSep 06, 2016Brass Contributor22KViews18likes44CommentsAbility to print Form responses.
The analytics that are available for Form responses are great! However, you cannot print the results. I realize you can export to Excel, but it would be very convenient to print out the existing analytics for the form responses. Now, you have to take a screenshots. The request/suggestion of a print optoinwas made back in June. Has there been any progress? StephanieSolvedStephanie PortilloOct 11, 2016Brass Contributor35KViews17likes13CommentsResponses changing from number to text
I've set up a survey in Forms to be used to count attendance for an organization on a weekly basis. There are 7 different questions to input a number for the count in different sections. I've set the restrictions on all the questions, and when I pull up the survey on my phone browser I can see the answer box says "The value must be a number." But when the answers are submitted, they are being changed to text; the Excel spreadsheet shows the answer is '59, instead of 59. The cell format also shows that it should be number. The problem is that I have some formulas built in the Excel spreadsheet recording the answers, and they obviously cannot work if the answers are text. Is anyone else dealing with this problem? Any ideas how to fix it?dfox74Aug 31, 2019Brass Contributor40KViews16likes35CommentsPlease, for the love of god, disable those recommendations
When designing my form I get constant pop-ups of recommended questions to add to my form. First of all, I do not need any recommendations, I know what I want to put on my forms. Secondly, the recommendations are te-ri-ble. They're galaxies removed from what the survey is about. In a survey that is aimed at scrum masters and product owners it suggests I add the question "did you enjoy your stay at our hotel". Mind you, we are a bank, not a hospitality business. If I want AI help, I'll ask ChatGPT. These built-in pop-up recommendations? Remove them ASAP.Ronald_DuckJun 23, 2023Brass Contributor7.7KViews16likes28Comments
