Is Forms dead?
Hello, Before I rely on Forms for a business process I'd like to ensure its longevity. Is Microsoft actively developing and supporting Forms? I see MANY ideas with 700-1100 votes (very high) tha...
Ok. This is awesome. Is there a roadmap to upcoming functionality?
- Specifically:
- When will dropdowns be fixed/implemented
- When will enhanced branching be possible?
- User selects an option on question 1
- Form guides user to, and only shows, question 4
- User selects an option from question 4
- Form guides user to, and only shows, question 9
- etc.
- When will Time be added to Date?
This tool is awesome and really a better solution in some cases than custom Sharepoint front end dev. With the addition of Forms to Flow, its really a no-brainer to use for some things.
I don't know of any official roadmap. Actually, many products don't have one. Other than what they post on Microsoft 365 Roadmap (this is meant for all the products and usually they post something that comes in a few months or so). If they add comment "working on it" to an idea, you can probably hope for it to be added soon.
Branching is not ideal, probably mostly because of absence of option to show every question on a separate page in general (then it would probably work as you want). Maybe they will add it at some point.
- The only new feature coming that I caught onto at Ignite was attachment collection being added for authenticated users, and then some months after attachments for anonymous users. Other than that, that's really all they talked about.
Here is a community blog post about forms with a little bit more information but there wasn't tons that I came across: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/Microsoft-Forms-Blog/Announcing-new-Microsoft-Forms-features-at-Microsoft-Ignite/ba-p/263007
