Microsoft Forms External Sharing Disabled
- Nov 26, 2019
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.
Sakthisp Just sharing my experience and a potential work around which works in my scenario. I set up a form to capture new client data for KYC checks, with that comes the requirement to upload proof of ID documents. So in my MS Form I add a "Text" section, in the question box I put some detail about what type of document is required etc. I then created a Sharepoint folder, lets call it "Client upload" folder. I then simply create and copy the link, set to share with anyone, then paste the link into the relevant forms "Text" box. The Form recipient receives the form and the link appears in the question field, there is obviously a click through in order to upload the document instead of attaching within the form itself, the document then ends up in my sharepoint folder.
The problem with this is that the recipient could still potentially click through the question without uploading a document, but it will work in some scenarios, like in mine where if the recipient doesn't upload a document I can easily work out who it is and ask them to do it, as I am only sending the form to one or two people at a time.
Hope this helps
