Create a person field in MS form to transfer to SP list

I am creating a MS form where I was wondering if there is a way to create a person field to search for people in my organization? I know I can use the record name function, but I need to guarantee anonymity.

 

If there is a way that would be great, otherwise I'll just ask the user to put in their Email, and load it into a person field in SP with power automate. ty

 

 

  • nerdyplayer​ there is no way to create a person field in MS Forms, you will need a question asking for their email address.

  • If I first create a sharepoint list, add person columns to the list, click on the Forms button next to Export & Automate on the list options, it creates default forms where it in fact does let me pick from a list of my company's users. How is it that the field can exist in that special microsoft form but not a normal microsoft form? Also how is this still not a feature?
