Is there a way to submit New SharePoint forms anonymously?
I want to use a New SharePoint form rather than an MS Form so that users can select a user from the People picker. We've had issues with people typing in the wrong email address in MS forms and due to the amount of responses we get to this particular form it's a pain to manually filter through and correct responses.
The form needs to be an anonymous submission. I can't see a way to do this with the new SharePoint form. Is it possible?

Just a suggestion but you could create a form in Power Apps with a people picker control and save the (anonymous) form to a SharePoint list.

Unfortunately the Power app records who created the form submission and puts that in the list. I had hoped it would show the Power automate owner as the creator. The submitter needs access to the list as well, which I don't want. Even if I don't connect the Power App to the list, the Power Automate flow fails if the submitter can't access the final list. It's really frustrating.
I wouldn't be having this issue if I could add a people picker to an MS form. I need the user to be able to select email addresses from our organisation, but submit the form anonymously. It's really frustrating.
Not in you use Secure input, also you can run it in the context of the service account. Which makes it 100% anonymous.
I use it as our whistleblower for multiple european goverment agancies and it's been vetted as secure and anonymous
