    The clip is fab. Very clear and straight to the point. Thank you for sharing.

    Lookup fields don't seem to be supported. I also couldn't find out how to edit a record with a form. We have an RFQ list, so each record lives during the RFQ process.
  • Great video and thank you. I think many of the features that are missing would be critical for majority of my user base that deals with external ussers. It will me interesting so, to see how this new feature matures.
  • @hpwcwai89
    Unfortunately attachment column is not allowed to add to this form
  • @Kaitlin862
    Its really nice to see some of these features, but there are definitely limitations here. Hopefully they will keep investing in here and making it more robust. As someone else mentioned I have a lot of internal forms that I then route with power automate to populate a microsoft list. If they could make that connection easier it would be a life saver!
  • @jorge210594
    Thank you for the explanation. Very concise and precise. Currently, I'm testing the option where the staff of my company fills out the same Microsoft Form, and I've automated it with Power Automate to send it to different Lists in different SharePoint sites. In other words, there are different workgroups that use the same information in different ways. I know nothing related to that was mentioned, but I wanted to know if there is a workflow that could work with this functionality you're explaining.
  • @MikeSunTzu
    Cheers, will stick to Power Automate for now
  • @lizelrust2463
    Hi Scott. I have a Lookup column that is not displaying as one of the form fields. How do I fix this?
  • @vidalrick75
    Hey Scott, thanks a lot for the video, I've been aware of this new functionality in lists since last month, but for some reason it still not available for me. Would you happen to know why that happens? Thanks again!
  • @marinahanna2491
    Thank you so much for these videos, they are so helpful! I am just desperate for lists to be built into the same powerful tool of Notion's two-way databases. I need to create a functional and bug-proof database of clinical trials running across multiple sites and multiple teams, and trying to do this in the M365 ecosystem while remaining usable and HIPAA compliant has been a herculean task.
  • @Romdryl
    Any idea why when I click on copy link for my form it doesn't actually copy anything?
  • @Habib-fz3zq
    The issue with using this forms is that when the list contains formulas in the metadata to hide/show list items based on user input, it doesn't work on the forms.
  • @lajessik87
    Love this feature but the form does not open. I get an error " sorry, something went wrong" " an unexpected error has occurred"
  • @barking_mad6649
    As usual with MS it's another 'nearly but not quite' product. πŸ˜‚
