Forms into PowerBI - Importing data prior to creating the flow

Posted on 30 Apr 2020 16:25:40 by 2

I have created a flow from Forms into Power BI. However, in BI i can only see the responses to the form from after i created the flow and none of the data prior to the flow. 


Is there a way of importing the historic data?

    Hi @ShaneWoodhouse 

     

    Unfortunately, there is no "Get responses" action for Microsoft Forms in Flow, you will need to do it manually or with another process as I don't think this is possible from Flow, only with the new ones submitted. For Forms, we only have "Get response details" but this is only for the one submitted at that time.

     

    Best Regards,

    Hi @ShaneWoodhouse 

     

    This is because the information is stored in PowerBi after the flow was created, the first responses were not saved in PowerBi because the flow wasn't yet created.
