Attach files to a form for outside users
Doesn't it depend on your tenant's OneDrive settings?

If the tenant allows external access to OneDrive, wouldn't users outside the organization would be able to upload files in Forms, since https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/add-questions-that-allow-for-file-uploads-6a75a658-c02b-450e-b119-d068f3cba4cf#:~:text=Sign%20in%20to%20OneDrive%20for,the%20name%20of%20your%20form.?
Or is there another piece to this I am overlooking?
Star_D No, it doesn't depend on your OneDrive settings, it looks at how the settings are set in the individual form .

- Yes, but I thought maybe the individual form might allow you to use a File Upload question type while allowing anyone to respond, if your tenant's OneDrive allowed external.
I haven't tested that in my dev, though, so thanks for replying.- you could attach the link to the OneDrive folder as part of the question.. like
1. upload the necesarry document via this link..... Star_D For our business, we have used the file request link and added that as a section to our forms. I haven't found a way to connect the document upload and form together yet but it is a way for external users to upload documents.

Hope that helps
Ah ok, thanks for confirming.
So if I create a form, how do I add a OneDrive folder to it to allow external individuals to add attachments please
- You can't, external users cannot upload a file in Forms.
