Forms Admin Center Feature Request
Please create a MS Forms admin center. Users often request access to Forms of employees who have left and there is no direct way to grant this access. We end up having to reactivate the deactivated account, sign in as the user, search for the form and grant permissions. This is not ideal and it's onerous. Thank you
