Quiz Branching with Practice Mode
There seems to be a problem with branching a quiz with practice mode turned on. If you make a quiz, add branching to it and then turn on practice mode it will not advance/branch to the next question. Instead the "Complete the Practice" button pops up and when clicked an error message pops up in my case it's "2 question(s) need to be completed before submitting: Question 2,Question 3."
Duplicate responses in Excel
I've been using Forms to create a Sharepoint list for some months now. Just in the past few days I've had an issue with one submission creating two or more response ID's in the Excel spreadsheet synced with Forms which drives my Power Automate flow to create the item in Sharepoint. Has anyone experienced this? It seems to be a sync timing issue perhaps but I have no idea how to fix it. Here is one example: the first two responses are exactly the same submission. Both have the same start/completed times but the sync to Excel created two different response ID's. The third response 1285 also tagged at exactly the same start time as the completed time on response 1283 and 1284. Can anyone shed some light to this issue?Ultimate Polling and Quiz Experience with Polls app: The Replacement for Forms app in Teams meeting
Initially Forms app was launched in Teams - for different experiences based on the sync vs async user scenarios, as it points to polling experience in meetings for quick creation to launch, while it points to survey experience in the context of Teams channel.To provide an intuitive and easy-to-access experience , Polls app was launched - a dedicated app for all your polling and quiz needs in Teams meeting and chat. We are glad to see that hosting an effective and interactive meeting just got easier after the launch of Polls.Power Automate - when a form is submitted: Other choice text
I have a flow that will write details from a form when submitted. One question in the form is a choice field with an "other" option where they can enter text for the other option. I would like the flow to write "Other" as the choice column value in the SharePoint list and then take what they type in the form for the other text to be written to another SharePoint list column as the text of the other option. This will keep the column formatting on the list view consistent for the values in the choice column. Any ideas?How to update to the new solution for syncing forms responses to Excel
We are excited to announce that we have a new and improved solution for syncing your form responses to Excel, with better reliability and performance! Previously, some Forms supported an older version of live data synchronization with Excel. This older solution will be gradually discontinued and completely replaced by the new solution by October 20th, 2024.
Quiz created in Forms is not available in TEAMS when trying to upload in Assignments Tab. Why?
I created a quiz in Forms and I am trying to insert it as a quiz under the Assignments tab; however, it doesn't show up when the Forms window pops up. It is the only file I have in Forms, but Teams is not locating it. The only option I have is to create a new quiz. Any reason why? How can I fix this? Thanks.
Can you populate form choices from external list i.e. Sharepoint?
Hi. Wondering if there is any way to get a Form to read choices for a question from an external source say a SharePoint online list? This would make it easier to manage the list without having to update the form each time new options were added. For example, if I had a form with a question asking for budget code to be entered, i would rather pull a list from a common external source than have to remember to update the form each time a code is added or removed? Thanks in advance. Jonathan
Populating data from Sharepoint list back to a form.
I have a data set of monthly performance information in a sharepoint list. One row per month. Users add to this data via a simple ms form. I would like to be able to offer users the ability to update prior data submissions. Ideally a user would use an ms form, and upon selecting a month with existing data the from would populate with the current data for that month, but allow the user to edit as needed. Submitting the data would cause the records to be updated to the new values. Is this or similar possible, and if so how would you achieve it? The dataset is the input to a PowerBI dashboard.
