Manage Your Forms Easily with Ownership Transfer

Hi,

Would you say if the owner of the Forms, their account got deleted but I am admin and so is everyone else, but i am not owner. Would the forms get deleted if their account got deleted? is there any possible way to restore it?

Thank you. 

If I move a form to a group I am not in, will that remove me as the owner of the form and allow someone else to take ownership over? 

Hello! How can I be sure that the form move from OneDrive to the Team site? What will happen if I leave the organization? will the Microsoft Office Form will still exist?

CologneClaret - perhaps a Group site can be created for the very purpose of Form storage/management that the account you're transferring the Power Automate Flows to can become a member of to manage the Forms? Unless you have multiple Automate owners then that would be a challenge. We strongly encourage group ownership of Forms for that very reason of departures. We have a Workflow Account that our small team can use to manage workflows and is added to existing groups to manage the Forms as well. But I can see the value in a Group site for that account solely for those cases where there isn't a clear existing group to own the Form or for data privacy reasons. Mostly it's myself managing, but should I not be available or leave the company, a team member is able to log in and manage in my absence. Like you in the beginning I built many under my identity and resisted a service account, but since I converted everything into that identity, it's been a tremendous benefit and gives me comfort that there will be no impact to Forms or Power Automate as users or myself depart. Additionally, this is a full E3 user account. I had myself added to the Outlook mailbox so I can easily monitor any email activity for failures. I used to login with InPrivate browser to OWA to check, now I can easily see it in Outlook desktop as a shared mailbox. 

I will shortly be leaving the company and have created a large number of Forms and Power Automate Flows. I am currently transferring ownership of Flows and verifying that the actions no longer run under my account. Transferring Forms to Groups is not an option, since this enables all Group members to view the responses, which in many cases should not be the case due to data privacy. I realise that another admin could move my Forms to another user account when my account  is deleted, which may take a while. There should be an option to transfer ownership whilst still employed by the company. Thank you.

I want to transfer my form to other user(1 owner only). How do I do it? as I can only find steps of transfer ownership to a group only...thanks

Hi, I'm about to leave my current organisation. 

I have set up an MS Form to gather information from people external to my organisation. Can I transfer ownership of the form to a group or is that only for forms that are set to "people within my organisation". 

I tried set up group ownership at the start but this wouldn't let me share with people outside of my organisation. 

Many thanks

Is an O365 Admin (not Global Admin) able to do this if the person has left the org and their account is disabled?

Thanks,

dear, 

I read a lot of comments but I have the following: I made forms in Ignite forms, my boss wants me now to make her the owner individual in stead of me so she can do some further adjustments. I see that I have to go to the 3 dots and then choose "move". In my case, the "move" button is first of all called "move to a collection" and second of all, it is gray (can't click on it). Could you please tell me how I can fix this?

Problem with the ownership transfer:

You can only transfer to Groups that are present in the list provided.  We have a lot of groups, most of which do not show up in that list.  There are no ways to search for a group to select it to move the form to.  This is a huge problem.  Is there a solution?
