Provide prompt access to your submitted Public Forms for anybody who needs it when you send them directly to your connected SharePoint account.

🗒️ Note: SharePoint Workflows are only available for Advanced and Enterprise accounts.

This Workflow requires a SharePoint connection. If you haven’t yet added a SharePoint connection, you’ll need to do that before you set up this Workflow.
