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.

    Just adding another vote for folders within forms.  We use forms for course surveys and we have a lot of courses!

    I am still waiting for this to happen in May of 2019. I need this update pushed through if possible!!

  • Another voice for folders of Forms. This is really a necessity if you use them seriously. What if there were a similar restriction on using Word or PowerPoint documents. We would go crazy. Please let us organize our Forms into folders.

  • I think also that should have something like folders to organize Forms. I work in elementary school and I have 4 to 5 classes in a year. Plus, sometimes I have educations for teacher and Forms are a bit messy ... Folders would be great and simple solution.

    I agree, when you start to use forms and quizzes more, in an educational environment you need to get sorted into topics, or lesson, it really does look messy. I know the leading search engine provider has that ability with their cloud drive and forms.

    So lets step in the right direction, folders for forms please, even if you have to create a folder in your one drive, and call it Forms and then your can create sub folders for topics an lessons  and save them in it.

    I agree this would be really welcome and help organize Forms! It's a popular request on the feedback site, it's worth voting and adding a comment, if you haven't already, to register your interest in this feature.
