ability to e-mail user's responses back them
ability to e-mail user's responses back them, of course the user has to put the e-mail as on of the questions. Also a way to put this at the end of form. "A copy of your responses will be emailed to the address you provided." MICROSOFT FORMS MUST be better than Google forms/surveys! Google forms has that option. See example.

Dear Microsoft Forms customer,
We are working on email receipt v2 recently. Based on your comments, we consider to iterate this feature which can match your requirements.
This survey is to understand your needs on response receipt in Forms. We really appreciate you could take 1-2 minutes to fill the survey. Here is the link: https://aka.ms/emailreceiptv2
Thanks!
Microsoft Forms Team

Is there an update on this?

Response to email sent out to regarding the update from Microsoft Forms Team above.
This is still not a valid option for Government Tenants. Please do a better job with communication. Not professional at all.

Would be a great way to ensure HR gets written feedback from interviews, development discussions etc. - instead of having to collect printed or emailed schemes and typing the input manually, you could just do the development discussion in Forms, and send the feedback directly to the manager and HR and preferable a third party (the employee in this case)

Yes, do it and now! This one is a must to do for Microsoft.
At our school, we miss this function very much when we send a form to the parents.

Absolute must ! Right now I have to confirm to people outside my organization that their answers were received, and the only way for me to do that right now is with a very long set up of Microsoft Flow.

Yes, This is a must have! We are using this form as a New Hire Sign Up form, and I would like the supervisors to see what their responses were to hold them accountable for what they put! I have to manually extract the info right now from the excel version for each and every form submission. It's very tedious!
Please consider this feature!
Thanks,

Keila M Pagan-Incle, I can confirm it is still not a GCC option for my tenant, 2 weeks later.
Microsoft Forms Team,
The survey follow-up to answering "No" to "Have you tried Microsoft Forms Email Receipt feature already?"
options is just advising the respondent to try it and then return to fill out the survey.
You shared the link with the entire UV audience, despite the feature not being available to all tenants yet (only O365 for business?).
It might me nice if either:
1. the branching for "No" offered a chose for "it isn't available in my tenant" rather than it's current option "I will" [try it and return].
2. include information in your response above as to which tenants CAN test the new feature, so others do not waste their time or skew your results with a bunch of "No"s that seem to indicate they are unaware of the feature, rather than that it is not available to them.. -

Your survey link seems to only be related to office 365 forms for business. I have a personal Office account so I don't have the choice to email responses back to the participant. (Yes, I have the business account at work and yes, I've used that feature. I just need it for the personal Office, too.)
Thanks! -

I verified the option through Microsoft Forms but I don't have the option available. Not sure if it's different or takes longer to show up for GCC tenants.

I can't enable this function - Is it only available to responses submitted by people in my organisation?

Is there an ETA on when this feature will roll out to GCC tenants?

I don't have permission to view the link above. So what is the status for the possibility for the user can 'Send me a copy of my responses'??

I don't have permission to view the link above? It would be good to have an option like google forms has where the user can 'Send me a copy of my responses'

Agree, just found this article and can't believe the feature is limited to people in the organization. C'mon Microsoft.

Is there a way that we can have a response be sent automatically to the respondent without the need for them to check a box?

The response from Microsoft on this request is unclear. But right now, the responder gets an email only if distribution of the form is limited to people inside the Office 365 organization. I have very little interest in sending forms to people within my organization, but I have a lot of interest in sending questionnaires/forms to clients outside of my organization. I have to consider switching to Google Forms because Microsoft Forms has no ability (a) to send confirmatory emails to responders outside the organization, and (b) to edit the responses. Google Forms does both.
Microsoft Forms seems to have very little orientation towards business that want to send questionnaires to clients to gather information, where the information is not in the nature of a survey (how much do you like that burger). I want a form system that lets me gather information from clients, that automatically routes the data back to the client, and that allows the client later to edit their response. For responders outside of the organization, Microsoft Forms has absolutely no such caability. And my organization does not have the sophistication and resources to use Flow to circumvent those limitations.

The feature in Forms provides the option to send the user's response to the user only if the user is in the organization. We need the feature to send the responses to a user outside of the organization. We want to send questionnaires to clients and need the answers to be automatically available to the user, preferably in an email with the complaint question/answer set. And I would like to have the question/answer set emailed to me. Currently only a link is emailed to me.
