Weighted Answers in 2 Survey Pages adding up to a end value.

Hello there, new to MS Form and Power Automate so bear with me on this one:   Part of an Ideas Survey, requires a user to complete a 'Survey Page' where there are 7 Questions with 4 possible choice...
Flow
forms
Forms Responses
microsoft forms
power automate

It looks like you want to do a calculation in Power Automate based on both surveys. This isn't possible you can't have 2 triggers in a flow so the flow can only get the response from 1 form. So you'd need to have 2 flows, each saving the response into the same SharePoint list. Then in that list you could probably do the calculation with a calculated column.

Hi Rob, thanks for your reply, 2 flows I don"t mind, the trigger though, is there only a trigger on the submit button? Can't get a trigger on a next button at all?

    You can't add a trigger on the next button because at that point nothing has happened, i.e the form has not been submitted. A flow can only run after the form has been submitted. If you didit with Power Apps instead of Forms then a lot more options are open to you as to when flows trigger etc.
