Microsoft Forms (formerly Office 365 Forms) is an online survey creator, part of Microsoft 365.[1]

Usage

Forms allows users to create surveys and quizzes with automatic marking.[2]

The data can be exported to Microsoft Excel, Power BI dashboards[3] and viewed live using the Present feature.[4][5]

Phishing and 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. It also place a similar advisory underneath the “Submit” button in every form created with Forms, warning users not to give out their password.[8]
