Microsoft Forms (formerly Office 365 Forms) is an online survey creator, part of Office 365.[1] Released by Microsoft in June 2016, Forms allows users to create surveys and quizzes with automatic marking.[2] The data can be exported to Microsoft Excel and viewed live using the Present feature.[3][4]
In 2019, Microsoft released a preview of Forms Pro which gives users the ability to export data into a Power BI dashboard.[5]
Phishing & Fraud
Due to a wave of phishing attacks utilizing Microsoft 365 in early 2021,[6] Microsoft uses algorithms to automatically detect and block phishing attempts with Microsoft Forms.[7] Also, Microsoft advises Forms users not to submit personal information, such as passwords, in a form or survey, and also place a similar advisory underneath the “Submit” button in every form created with Forms, warning users not to give out their password.[8]
