Note

Administrator settings are only available for Office 365 Education and Microsoft 365 Apps for business customers. To access these settings, sign in to https://admin.microsoft.com with your work or school account.

Microsoft 365 admin center

In the Microsoft 365 admin center, an office apps administrator with application administrator role can control external sharing settings, record names of people in their organization, and/or protect internal forms from phishing.

Here's how to access these settings:

  1. Sign in to https://admin.microsoft.com with your work or school account.

  2. Select Settings > Org settings.

    Note

    If you don't see the Settings option, select More options button Show all in the left pane.

  3. On the Settings page, under the Services tab, click Microsoft Forms.

Follow the steps below for specific settings.

External sharing

You can control whether or not external users are allowed to collaborate with users in your organization on a form or quiz. For example, a user in your organization creates a form, but wants to:

  • Send a link to the form to people outside of your organization and collect responses from external people.

  • Collaborate on the form (e.g. edit questions, change the theme design) with people outside of your organization.

  • Share the form as a template so people outside of your organization can duplicate the form for their own purposes.

  • Share a summary of form results with people outside of your organization.
