AUTOMATION OBJECTIVES:-

#	TOPICS
1.	Create Microsoft Forms and Publish.
2.	Create Power Automate Flow - Automated Cloud Flow.
3.	Integrate Microsoft Forms and Azure Devops with Power Automate.
4.	There are 3 Actions created in the Automated Cloud Flow.
4(a).	Action#1: When a New Response is Submitted.
4(b).	Action#2: Get Response Details.
4(c).	Action#3: Create a Work-item in Azure Devops.
5.	Create Azure Devops Work-items by submitting Microsoft Forms.

REQUIREMENTS:-

Below follows the step by step Process:-

1. Create Microsoft Forms and Publish.
a. Login to Microsoft Forms and Click on "New Form".

b. Create the Required Microsoft Form.

c. Once Microsoft Form is created, Click on "Preview".

From above, copy the link under the QR Code and open in another browser tab.

2. Create Power Automate Flow.
a. Login to Microsoft Power Automate > Create > Automated cloud flow.

b. Provide the Flow Name, Choose the below Trigger and Click on "Create".

3. Integrate Microsoft Forms with Power Automate.

4. There are 3 Actions created in the Automated Cloud Flow.
4(a) Action#1: When a New Response is Submitted.

Add an Action - Microsoft Forms

4(b) Action#2: Get Response Details.


When a new response is submitted using Microsoft Forms, Response ID is captured by selecting "Dynamic Content".

Ensure the "Work Item Type" is selected as "Issue".

The "Title" option in "Create a Work Item" Action in Microsoft Power Automate is mapped to Microsoft Forms "Get Response Details" "Task Name" under "Dynamic Content".


The "Description" option in "Create a Work Item" Action in Microsoft Power Automate is mapped to Microsoft Forms "Get Response Details" "Description" under "Dynamic Content".
