Using one Form to collect multiple responses
Howdy folks, This place seems a liiiiitle bit empty but I am currently beating my head against a problem that seems like something i should be able to handle via forms, but i can't figure it out. I need to collect some data that will have the user entering some information that would be repetitive if they had to fill out a form multiple times. But that information needs to be linked to a bunch of other, non repetitive data. Instead of making a form per user and populating the data myself, I would like to make a form that gives the user an option to repeat a set of questions, but providing different responses with each subsequent iteration. I have made a high quality diagram illustrating how i would like it to work. But when I test the form, using a branch to point back to section already completed once, the form ends. As i don't know how many possible entries the user might make, I can't simply create a bunch of duplicates of the same section, because I don't know when I would stop. It would also mean having to do a lot of manual data moving around once I have gathered responses. Ideally, i want to end up with an output that looks something like the image below. I have highlighted the once off entry information to illustrate how much additional work a particular user would have to repeat if they were to complete a whole fresh form for each of the unique entries. the ideal form would have the blue user from "Example School" filling out section 1 of a form to collect the blue highlighted data, then moving on to Section 2, which will capture the unique information. They are then given the option to add another entry or end. If they want to add more, they fill out Section 2 again, asked again if they want to add more, until they eventually say no and the form ends. Please help! I unfortunately do not have access to Flows/Automate, which i think could resolve my issue. I am hoping I am missing something that already exists in Forms. (i also realise it probably looks like I am spending 20hrs trying to streamline what would be 5 minutes of manual data handling. Because that is exactly what is happening . But seriously, if I can figure this out there are many additional use cases and scaling issues that get managed) Appreciate any advice anyone can give me.Microsoft Forms Choice question Limit
Hello, I am trying to make a form to take bookings for appointments over several time slots and days. I am using dropdown questions so that a responser can choose just one time slot. Eg - Tuesday 11:00, 12:00 etc. However, there are only two available appointments for each time slot. Is there a way to make the option disappear/be crossed out once two people have selected it? This is something you can do in Google forms with a plugin, but I can't figure out how to do this in Microsoft Forms. Many thanks, GabrielleHow to get a number code after submitting a MS Forms
Dear All, I am designing the online Health Declaration form by using MS Forms. May I have a question that which way we can customize or add on an MS Forms in order for us to get a random code after submitting an MS Forms? I mean that that random code or number is a piece of evidence to prove we had completed the form as well as provide it to the Security Guard at the Gate. May we use MS Power Automate Flows for this? I am looking forward to receiving your experiences on this topic for me. Many thanks. Bets regards, Thuan.My name shows up as null null, why is this and how do I fix it?
Applies To: All users where their name shows as "null null" Roles Required: Any Occasionally when users register with the Microsoft Tech Community, their First and last names will show up as null null. This typically happens for one of a handful of reasons: The first and last name fields of the identity provider have not been filled in. A recently created account in AAD sometimes has not yet fully propagated to the Microsoft Graph API. An error occurred during registration. How to fix it? For issue 1, the fix is to either go to your Microsoft Account page and enter the missing details or contact your Office 365 / Microsoft 365 admin and request they complete these details for you. Which of these options is appropriate for you will depend on if you're using a personal account or an account provided by your employer. Once these details have been updated then use this login link, it will force the system to try to refresh your profile data from the Microsoft Graph. For issue 2, the only option is to wait a minimum of 8 hours and then use this link to login. Finally for issue 3, try using this login link to force a refresh and if it still doesn't work - see below.
