Share a form or quiz

Create a link which allows others to view and make changes to the form or quiz you started. They can also view, edit, and delete responses.

All coauthors can share the form or quiz with others, but they can't modify the collaboration permission level. As the form or quiz owner, you're the only one who can select a different permission setting. For example, if you have set permissions to People in my organization with the link can view and edit, your coauthors will not be able to change that permission level to a different one.

For detailed info on the permissions scenarios, refer to the "Sharing permissions scenarios" section in Share a form or quiz to collaborate.

1. Open the form or quiz you want to share for collaboration.

2. Press the Tab key or Shift+Tab until you hear "More form settings," and then press Return. You hear: "Collaborate or duplicate." Press Return to select. The Add collaborators pane opens.

3. Press Shift+Tab until you hear the currently selected permission option, for example, "Anyone with a Microsoft 365 work or school account can edit and view result."

4. Press Option+Down arrow key to expand the permissions list. To define who can coauthor the form or quiz, press the Down arrow key until you hear the option you want, and then press Return.

5. If you selected Specific people in my organization with the link can view and edit, press the Tab key once. You hear: "Enter a name, group, or email address." Type the name or email address of the person or the name of the group you want to add as a coauthor, and then press Return. Repeat for each coauthor.

   Note: You can designate up to 100 coauthors on a single form or quiz, and this can be a mix of individuals or groups. A group (no matter how many people belong to the group) counts as one coauthor.

6. Press the Tab key until you hear "Copy button," and then press Control+Option+Spacebar. The collaboration link is copied to the clipboard.

7. To return to your form or quiz, press Esc.

8. Paste the link wherever your coauthors can access it, such as a Microsoft Teams channel or an email, and share it.

Stop sharing a form or quiz

If you want to stop collaborating on a form or quiz, you can remove the collaboration link. The link becomes unusable for anyone who tries to access it. You can always create and send another unique link for your form or quiz.

1. Open the form or quiz you want to stop sharing.

2. Press the Tab key or Shift+Tab until you hear "More form settings," and then press Return. You hear: "Collaborate or duplicate." Press Return to select. The Add collaborators pane opens.

3. Press the Tab key until you hear "Delete button," and then press Return.

4. You're prompted to confirm deleting the link. To confirm, press the Tab key until you hear "Remove link," and then press Return.
