- [**Upload Files in Microsoft Forms - New Feature!**](https://chrismenardtraining.com/post/file-upload-microsoft-forms) Microsoft Forms allows you to create a survey with multiple question types. One of the NEW question types is the "File upload". So users can now upload files in a survey! This is an awesome feature. The files are stored in a SharePoint folder and automatically marked with the person's name that uploaded the files. You can specify the number of files someone can upload and the maximum file size.
