Embedding the FORM within Email Body
Has anyone successfully embedded the Form Code within the body of an email so that the email "is" the form.
This is in contrast to the usual method of inserting the Form URL into an email - which requires the reader of the email to click and load the Form.
I hope this makes sense... at the moment we distribute Forms to Parents via email, including introductory text, salutation etc... then with a line asking them to "Click here to complete the Form"
How can I achieve "the email is the form"
- Its possible embed first question and saving as model?
I want to send the form with a Microsoft Flow, but if I do that, the email dont use the embeded first question.DilyanaRadulova Thks for the quick answer. Do u know if that would be something that can be add in a next update?
Hopefully the ability to embed the first question is the first step in making this possible. It would greatly increase response rates.
Hi Chris Laycock ,
have you seen this?
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/forms-pro/send-survey-email#embed-survey-in-an-email
It has just come out in the October release and might help.
Thanks,

- Unfortunately this only embeds the first line, but not the whole form unlike google forms.
Microsoft, when are we going to see this ability?
Also interested in a solution!
Looking for this capability SOON!!!

Thank you very much for your feedback. We’ve logged this ask in Microsoft Forms feature backlog
Forms Pro can now generate an email from within Forms itself (see image below).
and then
It doesn't embed the form into the email, but it does template sending it out so at least you save a few steps which is handy.
Cheers

- Hey Chris,
Did you ever find a solution? i am also very interested in embedded FORMS in emails..Hi Christian. No. I did some research HTML in email is a minefield mainly due to the lack of control of the email client variation at the receiver's end.
Have you seen it achieved with another platform... ie monkeybusiness type stuff....
I managed to fix a solution that was okay for my needs, and quick to do without any coding.
Using SurveyMonkey and their guide, i can now embed multiple choice questions directly into the email sent out.
