Sharepoint Data gone when sharing form externally

Help
At a glance

The community member has created a summer camp registration form that includes SharePoint data from Excel data sources. When they make the form public to share the QR code with people outside the organization, the SharePoint fields are no longer linked to the data, and the options cannot be seen or selected. Another community member responds that SharePoint data sources are currently not supported when using public share links, but that support for this feature is planned to be released sometime this year. The community members express a need for the ability to share SharePoint data sources and lists publicly, as it would make the process of updating dropdown options across multiple forms more efficient.

I have created a summer camp registration form that includes sharepoint data from excel data sources. When I make the form public so that I can share the QR code with people outside of the organization who I'd like to fill out the form, my sharepoint fields are not linked to the data any longer, and the options cannot be seen or selected. Is there a way to make the sharepoint data fields public as well?

Hi Laura,

Unfortunately Sharepoint Data sources are currently not supported when using public share links. This is a know/documented limitation. I do however know that support for this will be release some time this year as it is on the roadmap.

Hi Anthony,

Our company would also really appreciate the ability to share SharePoint data sources and lists publicly. Since we frequently update our inventory, manually updating dropdown options across multiple forms is quite time-consuming. A feature that allows public sharing would make this process much more efficient.
