Reza, I recently moved to a new role in my company to help streamline many of our "old school" processes across various departments. Your channel has been infinitely helpful when looking for solutions to their problems. Thank you for your excellent, in-depth and clear videos!
A very significant upgrade on List forms. This can surely handle lots of user needs and not create PowerApp forms. This is really good news. Thanks for this quick video to show us this new feature.
Hi Reza! As always, very helpful content :) I just hava a few questions: - Do you know if Microsoft plans to also enable the option to add attachments? - Some of the columns have the option to add Validations, which I think is great. But I have struggle a bit with list objects that does not gets created when u have to complex validations on different columns. Anything you have experienced? - I belive that many of us think that this may be the end of Microsoft Forms...What do you think? Yet again, thanks for great content! :) Regards Alexander
Most welcome! 1 - I am not aware of what the plans are. Hopefully they do support more column types. One thing I know is the team is looking at these comments. So hopefully they take this one up. 2 - Clearing data once entered should be allowed. Plz note it’s only a new form experience. 3 - MSFT forms has options for anonymous users and great for lightweight scenarios. Forms is not going anywhere.
Oh that's great. Thank you reza for the video ❤. Yes, maybe it is (still) not as powerfulI as MS Forms but I can see one big advantage by using this new experience. In MS Forms you can't use people picker fields. HERE you can 👏👏
This Is amazing feature and will change limitations of ms forms... customization to next level 💯 👌 That is the reason I love this channel, always having videos with out off box features. Thank you Raza 😊

It does bring us back to the pattern where the data structures determine the UX (which can be extremely problematic to make changes to when types change), but I think that risk is offset by the notable reward/simplification in this scenario.
Much awaited feature. Wonderful Video Reza as always- I created a form in my list but not able to copy the link - probably because the form lives in classic site?
Wow! cool one. Thank you, Raza. Our Office 365 list still does not have the Forms button. Are there any settings that should enable for this to appear.?
@@somjadek Yes. And to edit then you would need to share item link with user and at that point it would be SP form. Not worth it to be honest as its a custom solution.
I appreciate your channel and all the great work that you do! I especially like this one ... because now I don't have to export my Forms data into Excel and then import my Excel data into Microsoft Lists! I have a question for you if I may :-) I have a Microsoft List that captures lots of different information about Events. Title, Facilitator, Topic, and Location. I have a Microsoft List that captures lots of different information for Location. Building Name, Room Number, Address, City, Postal Code. Can I create a Form that will be used to enter data in the Events List with a little different requirement? I can do it in Access and with SQL but don't know how to do it with Forms. I want one of the data entry fields in my Events Form to get all the information from the Location List using a drop-down or "look-up" question. I can't seem to make it work. Can I do this or do I have to have all of the fields in the 'Location' list in the Form for the Events List. Perhaps I am asking the question wrong ... but hopefully you might put together a five minute answer and add it to your videos here! Keep up the great work and thank you "in advance"!
Hi Reza, great video as always, I am building a flow for shifts swaps where sometimes staff select more than one date they want to swop. Instead of the user submitting multiple forms for each date, does MS Form have the capability of selecting multiple dates?
Thank you so much for all your videos! Your videos have changed our lives and made learning easy. How can I add table formatting inside Microsoft forms? Is it even possible?
I have literally spent the last 2 weeks watching videos from you, setting up a PowerApps App to collect information into a Lists, then automating it to sending out emails. And suddenly when I launched the app internally - this feature gets released! Microsoft is monitoring me, I'm sure of it...! Thanks for the great video Reza! MVP as always. I don't see the feature available for me however..? Does it need to be initiated?
Thanks Reza! Do you know where on the backend these forms are saved? Is it in the Default environment? I don’t see this feature available yet in my dev tenant. Thanks!
These are not power apps forms so definitely not stored in default environment. Im assuming their definitions would be stored somewhere in the list itself. Feature is currently rolling out
Hey Reza, thanks for the great video. I've been looking to see, for a while, if this is something I'd find worth using, but I wanted to see the worth and from this I've collected it's that...users can fill out information from the SharePoint list without needing to see the list (already an option with Microsoft Forms, but now the column's don't need to be recreated). Lookup columns are the worst to recreate, but you cannot even use them in the new forms experience, so I don't see the big advantage, yet, because the nice thing about Microsoft forms is that you can customize the responses of the users before they actually hit the SharePoint list. Is there another great thing that I am missing? Seems this could be great in about a year.
Microsoft forms data dont roll into SharePoint. You need to write a flow for it. This feature allows users to fill a form (without having any access on SharePoint list)
@@RezaDorrani You can access forms within the SharePoint UI, are you suggesting those forms need to have a flow to bring in their data to that SharePoint list? If so what's the action for the flow? Thank you.
@@Bryan-g4i the one shown in video is also called forms in lists. They do bring data into SharePoint as shown in video. “Microsoft forms” do not do so directly. You can use flow for that. I have a playlist on Microsoft Forms that may help.
Hi Reza, Thank you for the tutorial. Can I please check if there is a way to update the existing data in ms list via forms. I am trying to use the forms as front end to the data and not give access to ms list.
Regarding the CHOICE-type fields, I assume we cannot allow users to choose among options that exist in a separate table somewhere? Or do the options have to all be manually created and typed into this form at the time that we create the form?
Hi, can you do a video on modern table control, can you confirm if there is row click functionality enabled like classic table control...I could see a new column Navigate - go to record in the last of new table control..
Would be good to know if you can use the alternative form styles to manage approvals, i.e. Leave Requests, a form for an employee to complete, a form for managers to complete (approve/decline) and then it all sits in one place, would be great for HR.
Any suggestions on data validating a List Form submission; for example, using an adjacent Project Management list with a column called "Job Number" or "Job Name" - that could then be the data validated choices available to another List called "Daily Job Report" ?
Good video thanks. However, am I right in saying that Forms currently does not include attachments? We experimented with building forms for some request lists we have but I don't see an option to enable attachments in the form settings menu, which is a problem.
Thanks for this Video, I have a question, that I wish to allow the end users of my company to upload an attachment in this new Form. somehow I am not able to see any options to do that. Is it not available or am I missing something?
I just saw this new feature a few days ago. it makes sense that Microsoft brought it because we were using Microsoft Forms + Power Automate, while now we can just create a form directly from the List. However, it still doesn't have a branching option like Forms and no way to attach documents.
Thank you Reza for informing about this upcoming feature. As a dev I have so many questions. 1. Can this be done with a customized power apps forms? 2. Are we going away from Microsoft forms. 3. How can a user look at a item which he has submitted. Another question with the new list experience is, can we disable the model pop up form, because if i have configured a layout, it does not work seamlessly. Thank you.
Thank you Reza for the video on forms creation. I have tried to create forms in sharepoint list. It was good. But after submission, i can see "Submit another response" button which we open form again to submit another response. Can you please advise how can we hide "Submit another response" after submitting the form.
Thank you Reza, I've been using it for a while, the only missing feature is Sharing the form publicly, not only inside the org. Please let me know if you have a solution for that?
Thank you for this video! So, can you create multiple forms for one list? I see this as a cheap man's approval process. If I have a list of items that need 2 dept approvals, I can send legal a link to the form to approve with Legal Approval dropdown and Legal Comments columns, another form to send to Finance with Finance Approval Dropdown and Finance Comments columns, and so forth...
I think I answered my own question. Is this for new items only? When you open an item from the list, does it open on the right hand pane or in new lists experience?
Reza, I had a question for this list form. When I created power automate flow based on this list form, which trigger action should be chosen, Sharepoint list item or form response ?
Thanks for the video, currently I have a list with a customised form for the users to enter their data but the approver needs access to different fields, can I create a form this way just for the approver to use? (This new form functionality doesn't yet exist in our tenant). I can't see a way to access the customised form via powerapps and the default form for the list. This new functionality could solve that.
Its an amazing addition. Its a bit disappointing to see the LookUp field type is not supported. I want to allow user to submit modification (only certain fields) of existing list item through a form. However without lookup filed it would be hard to match the item. @Reza or any one know of any workaround?
@@RezaDorrani thanks for your reply. How about if I use Power Automate to read the unique values of the lookup field and create a choice column and use that instead? I think there is an way to dynamically add new choice values. So in theory I can use Power Automate to insert any new choice values when a new item is inserted to list. Do you that would work?
Hello everyone, I have another question, with the implementation of the Forms in SharePoint, the interface of input form became too small & narrow in the screen. What JSON code can be added to make input form to fill the full screen and data fields are placed horizontally (instead of everything vertical)?
is the premium plan free? also would like to know if it has some of the functionality like ms project. e.g. dependency types F2S, S2S etc, with lag, also would like to know if i can see over- allocation like the red man in ms project, rates for budgeting, tracking gantt for actuals etc... otherwise this is just a task management tool for scheduling only and not for project management...
What do you do if you do not have that forms menu item. I see export, i see automate but no forms inbetween. Does it needs to be activated before you have that functionality?
Great one. One thing I noticed, all SP lists opening in Lists(?env=WebViewList), do not giving me the "FORM" option. For Some of them "FORM" is there & for some, it's not. Is there any reason behind it? Can you please explain Reza.
I have one question if you allow me, can we use power automate for filtering picture directly for example, I have a picture file (A) when I upload it can we filter it by using the name of picture directly and copy or send it to file (B)?
Hi Reza, Hope your doing well!! The SharePoint list I was using has now been converted to a Microsoft list, and it had been customized using PowerApps. However, in the Microsoft list, the form now opens in a smaller popup compared to my original form. This results in some columns being hidden due to the limited height of the popup. Is there a solution available to adjust the height of the new form popup in the Microsoft list?
Is It possible to reset to 1 the ID column in the list. Also in microsoft form they are automatically logging the email and eid as well as the actual date and time of the respondent. is it possible as well in list form? Thank you in advance for answering.
Im not sure if there is an option to reset the ID internal column. List form has internal columns for created by and created on which will you give you the information.
I notice you mention more than once that the user "is in your organisation" so is such a form accessible to an external Guest user in an MS Team hosting the underlying List?
Is it possible to put site pages to a list and create a power app out of the list. I have a site for glossary, all the individual glossary term is created as a stand alone site pages. I would like to put them on a list for user to select, and search, sort, filter...
Is it possible using the list forms to have - for example - participant as unique value but several forms - I.e on to gather required training and another form gathering training already completed - which if participants is already in list of combines/adds the other form response to that row? (Hope that makes sense)
@@RezaDorrani sorry I will try again. I want to have 2 forms - but have both responses linked by the person field to 1 record. Even if competed at different times. Does that clarify it at all
Hi, How the user name gets auto populate when he is submitting the form. For example in your case the initial name is reflecting so for the same I have given the field as user name so in that instead of typing manually how the username field autopopulates as soon as the form is opened by the user

Can you please advise how can we hide "Submit another response" after submitting the form.
Most welcome! I’m not sure if there is an option to disable that at the moment.
Thank you for the reply Reza. In your video I can’t see Submit another response button. Can you please advise.
@@saireddyaug03 May be it was not an option when I made this video
@@RezaDorrani Thanks for the quick reply. Let me check if any way to hide.
Thank you Reza, I've been using it for a while, the only missing feature is Sharing the form publicly, not only inside the org.
Please let me know if you have a solution for that?
This is a product feature. Sharing publicly is not an option for now.
Thank you for this video! So, can you create multiple forms for one list? I see this as a cheap man's approval process. If I have a list of items that need 2 dept approvals, I can send legal a link to the form to approve with Legal Approval dropdown and Legal Comments columns, another form to send to Finance with Finance Approval Dropdown and Finance Comments columns, and so forth...
Yes you can
I think I answered my own question. Is this for new items only? When you open an item from the list, does it open on the right hand pane or in new lists experience?
@@jherschel This is not the actual list form. This opens as a full page experience only once a user opens form via link shared
Reza, I had a question for this list form. When I created power automate flow based on this list form, which trigger action should be chosen, Sharepoint list item or form response ?
Trigger would be when new item is created in sharepoint list
@@RezaDorrani Well noted. Appreciate for your quick response!
In list form can we able to make some field visible or invisible based on choice from other fields..
I believe Yes. Check documentation on SharePoint list form customization options.
Thanks for the video, currently I have a list with a customised form for the users to enter their data but the approver needs access to different fields, can I create a form this way just for the approver to use? (This new form functionality doesn't yet exist in our tenant). I can't see a way to access the customised form via powerapps and the default form for the list. This new functionality could solve that.
Currently the form only accepts new items. You can create a form specific to approvers.
Its an amazing addition. Its a bit disappointing to see the LookUp field type is not supported. I want to allow user to submit modification (only certain fields) of existing list item through a form. However without lookup filed it would be hard to match the item. @Reza or any one know of any workaround?
I am not aware of any workaround
@@RezaDorrani thanks for your reply. How about if I use Power Automate to read the unique values of the lookup field and create a choice column and use that instead? I think there is an way to dynamically add new choice values. So in theory I can use Power Automate to insert any new choice values when a new item is inserted to list. Do you that would work?
@@datique I have not tried it so not sure
@@RezaDorrani, thanks for your reply. For anyone having the same requirement, I have tested it and it works great.
could we toggle the state of form (active/inactive) using power automate?
I'm not sure if that's an option
Perfect!!!
Thanks
Hello Reza, just a quick question, how to share the created List Form outside the organization?
That is currently not an option
Thanks Reda
Why list form not support validation list fields?
I am not aware about the why. Documentation calls out the limitations.
Hello everyone, I have another question, with the implementation of the Forms in SharePoint, the interface of input form became too small & narrow in the screen. What JSON code can be added to make input form to fill the full screen and data fields are placed horizontally (instead of everything vertical)?
This feature is limited in terms of styling. If you need JSON formatting, then best to use standard JSON formatting for SharePoint lists.
is the premium plan free? also would like to know if it has some of the functionality like ms project. e.g. dependency types F2S, S2S etc, with lag, also would like to know if i can see over- allocation like the red man in ms project, rates for budgeting, tracking gantt for actuals etc... otherwise this is just a task management tool for scheduling only and not for project management...
Premium plan is not free and is same as ms project
What do you do if you do not have that forms menu item. I see export, i see automate but no forms inbetween. Does it needs to be activated before you have that functionality?
Its currently rolling out to all tenants. All we have to do is wait.
Great one. One thing I noticed, all SP lists opening in Lists(?env=WebViewList), do not giving me the "FORM" option. For Some of them "FORM" is there & for some, it's not. Is there any reason behind it? Can you please explain Reza.
Feature is currently rolling out to all tenants. Not sure why you are getting it in some.
It would be so nice if we could see the list entries in form view
For that user needs access to the list.
I have one question if you allow me, can we use power automate for filtering picture directly for example, I have a picture file (A) when I upload it can we filter it by using the name of picture directly and copy or send it to file (B)?
I am not sure about this.
I recommend posting your query on forums in case someone has done something similar powerusers.microsoft.com
Is it possible to have two forms and set different default values to the same field in each form ?
2 forms yes. Different default values - Im not sure
When is this rolling out? Still can't see Forms button in my List.
Documentation states currently rolling out
Hi Reza, Hope your doing well!!
The SharePoint list I was using has now been converted to a Microsoft list, and it had been customized using PowerApps. However, in the Microsoft list, the form now opens in a smaller popup compared to my original form. This results in some columns being hidden due to the limited height of the popup. Is there a solution available to adjust the height of the new form popup in the Microsoft list?
I am not aware of a solution for that
Is It possible to reset to 1 the ID column in the list. Also in microsoft form they are automatically logging the email and eid as well as the actual date and time of the respondent. is it possible as well in list form? Thank you in advance for answering.
Im not sure if there is an option to reset the ID internal column.
List form has internal columns for created by and created on which will you give you the information.
Hi Reza, it is possible to add attachment to the new forms experience?
Currently, No
@@RezaDorrani @RezaDorrani Thank you for the quick respond

I notice you mention more than once that the user "is in your organisation" so is such a form accessible to an external Guest user in an MS Team hosting the underlying List?
Currently it is for internal users only as per documentation
@@RezaDorrani does the same apply to an MS Lists without the form front end?
@@primaveranz No
Is it possible to put site pages to a list and create a power app out of the list.
I have a site for glossary, all the individual glossary term is created as a stand alone site pages. I would like to put them on a list for user to select, and search, sort, filter...
I’m not sure if thats an option
@@RezaDorrani ok. thanks
Do you know when this feature will be made available?
Currently rolling out to all tenants as per the blog post linked in video description
can we edit existing items through forms?
No
Hi Reza, If you want the person to add an attachment. How can that be done?
Currently, it does not support attachments
www.linkedin.com/posts/tetsuya-kawahara-730498180_microsoftlists-sharepoint-activity-7261593856125616128-ikVa?
would be nice if they have a barcode scanner for the asset management SP list
You can try using power apps for that
Is it possible using the list forms to have - for example - participant as unique value but several forms - I.e on to gather required training and another form gathering training already completed - which if participants is already in list of combines/adds the other form response to that row? (Hope that makes sense)
I did not understand the question
@@RezaDorrani sorry I will try again. I want to have 2 forms - but have both responses linked by the person field to 1 record. Even if competed at different times. Does that clarify it at all
@@sandyspringer55 No - it would be multiple records
Hi,
How the user name gets auto populate when he is submitting the form. For example in your case the initial name is reflecting so for the same I have given the field as user name so in that instead of typing manually how the username field autopopulates as soon as the form is opened by the user
I did not do anything special. Whatever is shown in video is the out of the box behavior.
@@RezaDorrani Sure Thanks I have one more query how to enable Grid View in SharePoint currently onlye Add New Item option in showing to in my SharePoint list.
@@eliteenterprises2498 I believe thats out of the box. Somewhere in list settings is where the option can be enabled or disabled
@@RezaDorrani sure will checkout. Thanks
Can you use the form as a web part so it can be added to a SharePoint site page
I don’t think that’s an option
Hello Reza! I have Microsoft 365 for enterprise through my employer, but I don't see the forms option in Microsoft List. Is this a beta test feature?
Its currently rolling out to all tenants. Customers in first release will get it sooner.
Can it still do json formatting for conditional show/hide columns?
No.
For that you would need to use standard list formatting.
Ok, pero para compartir el formulario a personas fuera de la organización es posible?
No
May I know how to set the form for file upload, thanks a lot!
It does not support that feature
