Lock down Form creation for staff
Hi,
I want some staff being able to create forms/surveys etc.
https://forms.microsoft.com/
I want to ensure that the rest of the staff can consume the forms ,i.e. fill in, but not create new or "Collaborate or Duplicate".
What is the best way for me to do this?
Thank you for your time,
Ollie

You can manage this using Microsoft 365 admin settings rather than directly inside Microsoft Forms. By default, anyone in your organization can create forms, but you can restrict this through the Microsoft 365 admin center or PowerShell. Here’s how it works in simple terms:
If you want only certain staff to create or manage forms (while everyone else can just fill them in), you can disable form creation at the organization level and then re-enable it for specific people or groups. This is done in the Microsoft Forms settings under your admin portal, or through PowerShell by setting the “AllowCreateForms” property to False for everyone except your selected users.
Once configured, the rest of your staff will still be able to open, view, and respond to forms, but they won’t be able to create new ones or duplicate existing ones. It’s a great way to maintain control while keeping things simple for users who just need to respond.
