    Please add this feature to Forms. Definitely a better end user experience than using a third party website.

    We need to add a link to a very long privacy notice but the URL from sharepoint is not very user friendly for anyone completing the forms. We need a short link saying 'Privacy Notice'.

    People in my organization are still using Survey Monkey and will not switch over because of this limitation. They need to be able to send shorter links out to class participants, and it cannot be emailed out.

    Yes, please! Is this being worked on? We really need this for our external and internal users,

    Wir laden zu wichtigen Veranstaltungen immer wieder bewusst per Brief ein, weil Mails niemand mehr richtig liest. Dann können wir aber keinen kryptischen Link von Forms brauchen, weil den niemand eintippen kann. Wir brauchen einen sprechenden Link, den wir selbst definieren, wie bei Subsites vom Homepages. Gerne auch mit unserer Domain.

    Hola, absolutamente NECESARIO tener un link corto para los formularios, o una herramienta para hacerlo corto.

    Single biggest reason to keep paying for SurveyMonkey.

    The extreme length and complexity of the automatic URL is impossible to share in a printed document, or, even worse, verbally.
