Tip: Learn more about Microsoft Forms or get started right away and create a survey, quiz, or poll. Want more advanced branding, question types, and data analysis? Try Dynamics 365 Customer Voice.
If you've created a survey, quiz, or poll, you can easily move it to a group so everyone in your group becomes an owner of that form. Group co-authors can help add content, analyze responses, and share the form with others.
Note: If you're an admin, you can transfer the form of someone who has left your organization. Learn more.

Scroll down to the bottom of your page and select All My Forms.
-
On the form you want to move, select More options in the upper right corner of its tile, and then choose Move.

-
Choose the group you want to move your form to, and then select Move.
Note: To do this, you must be a member of the target group. Being an owner does not explicitly make you a member.
To see the form in the group for which you moved it to, select the back arrow on your My forms page, and then scroll down to the bottom of your page to see My groups. This list shows all the groups you belong to and the forms owned within those groups.
Select the group to see the form you moved to it.
Commonly asked questions
Your newly moved form will inherit all the features of a group form, such as its responses stored on the group SharePoint in Microsoft 365 page. Under the name of the form title, a new Excel workbook will be created in the Documents folder of the SharePoint in Microsoft 365 page and include all previously captured responses. Any new responses will be synced to this new Excel workbook.
Important: Don't move the Excel workbook to another location. New responses coming in won't sync with an Excel workbook that has been moved.
Yes, the link pointing to the original form will still work after the form has been moved to a group, as long as the original form owner account still exists within Azure AD. The response of a submitter who uses an old link (to the original form) will be captured in the Excel workbook stored on the group SharePoint in Microsoft 365 page.
Important: If the original form owner is hard deleted (30 days after soft delete), the original form link will no longer work.
