Extract responses from MS Forms and Sort them Into Multiple Excel Files

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

Hello Community!

I am working on a project where I need to automate the process of sorting new responses from a Microsoft Form into different Excel workbooks based on a specific response (Eg: User Region). We have a single form that is used for 15 (And growing) different products, and each product has its own dedicated Excel workbook for data collection and sharing. 

 

Here's the workflow I am trying to automate:

  1. Form Submission: A User fills out the MS Form, selecting one of the 15+ products from a dropdown list.
  2. Data Segregation: Based on the product selected, the form response (Corresponding Row in the spreadsheet) should be automatically added to the corresponding Excel workbook. 
  3. Workbook Management: Each product has its own Excel workbook, and I need to ensure that responses are directed to the correct workbook.

I did try building a couple of basic flows but I get stuck at the conditions part as right now it seems like the number of nested / parallel conditions would keep expanding and would over complicate the flow. 


This is my current Manual process:

  1. A user completes the form
  2. I open the spreadsheet of the form, and I manually copy and paste entries based on their region to their respective individual Region's Workbooks files.
  3. I share the new workbook file to the respective individual.


I am hoping to see if there is a way to automate this process

Thank you in advance for your help!

    Hi! Were you able to solve this? I'm looking to do almost exactly the same (sort the answers in multiple sheets in one workbook) 

    thanks!
