Customizing Forms - can show excel data

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Community Power Pla...

Hello, just wondering if there is a way i can customize my forms .. either thru outlook, excel.. or even power automate

This will be used as a tool for my workmates to send out a request to me;; but since the data that I will be needing from them are around 4 to 5 values that will be coming from an excel file.. i was thinking how i can automate wherein if they know the Req Number, all others will be automated and inserted in the form.

 

I am trying to be creative and checking how i can maximize the features of outlook, forms or power automate..

But would need help on this..

 

Hope someone can give me ideas..

    Hello, @Anonymous!

     

    Let me see if I understand (and correct me if I'm wrong please). You would like to update a form based on the information stored in an Excel document? 

     

    If this is the case, then I think it wouldn't be possible as there isn't an action that does this. If what you need is to update an Excel document based on the answers provided by your workmates with a MS Form,  then you could use this Microsoft Forms - Connectors | Microsoft Docs.

     

    Let me know if I understood incorrectly or if this helps you! 

    Cheers!
