Pass parameter via URL to fill the field in form
I have created a survey via Microsoft Forms. This survey should be displayed as webpart in different SharePoint Teamsites. Is it possible to show different content in each teamsite? e.g. via URL of webpart to pass parameter to form to fill in one field automatically?

Yes, we also have the the demand to call a form in MS forms with predefined values (but dynamically using input parameters).
Background: We are calling the form link from a (in-house developed) tool. Our tool already knows some of the details and when calling the link we would like to prefill the form as much as possible. With this we avoid much double work and the users can already use a prefilled formular.
The easiest way would be if we could use URL parameters to prefill the form.- DingkunXie

thank you for your suggestion. It works in principle, aber not reliable, because the Prefill data will be saved in browser cach. That mean, if the user make feedback for different surwey in short time, the prefill value shows always the value from first URL. I hope, this feature will be improved in the furture.
