Anonymous responses on Office forms: is there any way to have their email or name?
Cian Allneranswer above is spot on.
Once you've collected the anonymous results, there's no way to track who submitted what.
If that were possible then someone could trick submitters into thinking the survey is anonymous, and then reverse engineer their ID to use for sinister gain.
If you want to ever cover your bases, might be worthwhile to add a text field for Name and/or Email.
Best wishes and good luck!

How would the person responding to the survey know if their name/email will be captured?
That option is only available when "Only people in my organisation can respond" in the settings is enabled and "Record name" is selected. Then they have to sign in to access the form, unlike an Anonymous form, though I don't think there is a visual clue saying exactly, record name is enabled.
- What if individuals are not within your organization but you need to have them complete a certification test to work in your system? I need to know who is completing the Forms questionnaire. Please help. Thanks.
Robin_Manning then you will need mandatory questions asking the respondent for their name, company and email address.

I agree with you on everything except the last bit as it does warn you with a message above the first question when you enable Record name in the settings:
"Hi <name>, when you submit this form, the owner will be able to see your name and email address.

Damien_Rosario can we edit this text "Hi <>, when you submit this form, the owner will be able to see your name and email address." I don't want to hide it since i am using the users credentials in my flow.
