Adding a Signature in Microsoft Forms

Question

Dear Team,

Greetings for teh day.

We are using Microsoft forms to collect data from external parties. We would like to get their Signatures on the form supplied.

Is there any provision to collect the signature on the Form without the help of Power Automate.

We are using Office365 @ enterprise level.

Please share us your expertise on the above subject.

Hi Abdul Basith Abdul Bari,

Thanks for the response.

While external users upload files are not supported in Forms for now, it could be very hard to collect the signatures. I find one user shared his idea on how to accomplish this with a workaround.

Attach files to a form for outside users - Microsoft Community Hub (see jessb1445's replies)

"What I ended up doing was adding a link to request files to a onedive folder. Then set up a flow that moves that file to a sharepoint folder and notify someone. The sharepoint folder I've moved it to has a lookup field to a list from the form responses. When someone fills in the document field for their name (lookup field), it adds it as an attachment to the item. This is the only workaround that I have found works."

Hope this can help.

Sincerely,

Hi Ryan,

Workaround looks promising and Thanks for that.

As stated in the original email thread, it would be really helpful if we could get the screen shots ( step-by-step ) to understand the process.

Thanks
