Failed to upload your file MS Forms
Dear Djarano
This generally happens when the file location (i.e. OneDrive folder) is either deleted or inaccessible for any reason.
As a workaround, I would suggest to following these steps might help:
- Save all responses of your existing Form ABC (example in this case)
- Create a Copy of the Form ABC (this automatically recreates the OneDrive folder at backend)
- Step 2 creates a new Form named Form ABC (2)
- Delete the Form ABC
- Rename Form ABC (2) as Form ABC
- Share its new link (the url) and try uploading the file
I tried and it worked for me. Let me know, if this works for you.

We have the same problem here.
As soon as i create the quiz in teams, the form is copied to the sharepoint library of the team. BUT on the upload folder, where the students should upload there files (in the sharepoint library > apps > microsoft form> quiz name > question), the folder is not shared. it happens not all the time, but i would say 80% of the time. as soon as i have some luck and a quiz works, i can see that the folder in sharepoint is shared for uploading files...
we need a resolution...
- jeet21Apr 28, 2020Copper ContributorDid you check the SharePoint permissions for the user who is creating the quiz? This could be one reason.
Another could be the connectivity issue from the user computer to the server being accessed. Possibly the post is not properly getting received at server end.

The problem is not with MS Forms. Of course, the file-upload-questions work, if i share the link. That was never the problem.
But ... If i create an assignment with a "quiz" in MS Teams, members cannot upload files within the upload-questions.
Sharing a link to forms within an assignment in MS Teams makes no sense. Several teachers in several countries -
in several organisations have the same problem.
Thank you anyway. - GerhardApr 25, 2020Copper Contributorsorry - thought, the answer came from Microsoft Teams-Support.
