Usage
[edit]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 & Fraud
[edit]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]
