@Yong Qiu Is there any news on the Forms API, yet? Or is there an estimated schedule, like H2/2020 or so?

Hi @SureshC997
I think your link is for Kaizala and not for Forms or Forms Pro.
Cheers.

Until the long awaited API is released, a short term workaround could be to use Power Automate (formerly Microsoft Flow) to trigger when a new form is submitted, and to save the results into a SharePoint list, or Excel file, etc and to manipulate the data from there.
Power Automate puts some pretty cool options for not only extracting the Forms data but to also initiate other actions that can benefit you (e.g. put the results into a Word doc template and email to someone, etc).
Well worth a look!

@Damien Rosario I wouldn't call using Power Automate a workaround; it's designed for the job! And the integrations, as you've pointed out, with Email, SharePoint, Forms, Excel etc etc work beautifully.

Hi @Rob Elliott
Very true, the capability is there with some extra steps to capture the initial submission, but I reckon my suggestion is a workaround until the API comes out as there'll be more direct ways to get data out of Forms with its release.
Cheers

@Yong Qiu Is Graph able to pull in Forms APIs at this time?

@Rob ElliottYou can't do everything with Power Automate. For example, I want to create a single webpage where one can enter multiple names and email addresses. They all should get send a link to a form. At the moment you have to create an excel file with the names and email addresses? That's IT from the 90s

@helfensdoerfer I never said you could do everything with it and I am often telling people in my company that it can't do this or we need a premium connector for that. But seeing if it can do what you want for a particular task is a reasonable place to start.

@Rob ElliottYou are completely right! Just venting because Microsoft Forms is such a simple product and every 1 person startup today has an API for everything. Except one of the biggest IT companies in the world...
