Microsoft Forms External Sharing Disabled
Hello, After enabling file attachment in the microsoft forms, the external sharing is disabled. Is that possible to share the form with outside organization people. Thanks, Sakthi

Sakthisp If you have File Upload field in your form, it must be for users in your org only.
The form can be anonymous, for use externally, but not with the file upload field.

KevinCrossmanYes, I can see that with file upload it can only be used internally, but any clue why? Does it have anything to do with the fact that uploads are sent to Form Owner's OneDrive, or for Forms tied to Groups, to that Groups SharePoint library?
Is it something that can be addressed with settings, or is it hard-coded to be like that?

Most probably this is done for security reasons to prevent data exfiltration form your organisation.

iyad I know, but it does not help with impatient C-suite breathing down my neck and asking why something that they did without any issues with Google Suite is such a big problem with Microsoft.
I found a third-party app that claims it can do it and I'm tempted to try and add it to our tenant, but that's an extra expense.

TadeuszKM it's hard-coded like that by Microsoft and can't be changed in Settings.
