How can external clients upload files to MS Forms? #M365AMA
In this episode, the #M365AMA panel discusses the following community question:
“I’m trying to send a form to clients for them to upload files. It will not allow me to send to anyone, just those in my organization. Is there any way around this? My admin has tried changing settings and no luck. Please help!”

Some relevant notes/links shared by the team:
- In short, No. There have been many community discussions on this topic, with requests for officially supported features that allow external guests to upload files.
- As discussed in the video, you can go the Power Platform route and build an app or workflow to help with this process. Here’s an example: [https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/microsoft-forms/microsoft-forms-and-external-upload-files-possible/m-p/3990051]
- Another option is to build a SharePoint site with external access [https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/all/allowing-microsoft-forms-file-uploads-for-external/ff5ab319-831d-4f1a-b697-1fd201ba4efc]
