@rams62 no there's nothing like that with Forms. What we do with our IT ticketing system, which starts with a user completing a form in Forms, is to use a flow in Power Automate to save that form response into a list in SharePoint. The flow also sends the submitter an email with the details of what they submitted and the ID number from the SharePoint list. A Power Apps customised form from the SharePoint list is then used to deal with the ticket, add additional information, add comments and other actions.

@RobElliott are there any instructions out there to put this in place?
