Cannot Complete Survey
Refreshing the page will definitely wipe the answers so I wouldn't recommend it (worst case users can open another tab to the survey and copy/replicate their first survey answers into the new survey window), but as to the time out problem, I haven't personally seen that one happen.
Our of curiousity, how many questions do you have in the form? How long are people taking to complete it?
I might also tag in one of my favourite forum colleagues to see if he has any ideas? Deleted
Cheers

- sara.breidenbachOct 01, 2018Copper ContributorHi Damien,
Thanks so much for your answer. The survey has about 39 questions and it takes around 20 - 30 minutes to complete. However, some who complete in that time don’t timeout.
And yes, feel free to tag whoever you want. The more help, the better.- Damien_RosarioOct 01, 2018Silver Contributor
Thanks for your answer. We'll do our best to help!
If Chris doesn't have a solution (hoping he might), I would suggest asking Microsoft what's happening on this front as they may have been (or still are) experiencing service issues with regard to Forms.
I might also tag in Zhongzhong_Li from Microsoft to see if he has any thoughts?
Cheers

- DeletedOct 01, 2018Yeah, I'm not sure that's a pretty long survey. Probably a baked in Timeout for the application itself that we wont' be able to change. If anything,
Only thing I could recommend is splitting the survey up. You can customize the thank you message now, maybe add a link to the next section in that message to fill out? So have 10 questions, then submit, on thank you message, link to next 10. etc?
