Use Microsoft Forms to Trigger Workflows in Torq

To ingest Microsoft Forms responses as events in Torq, you need to create a Microsoft Forms trigger and use the generated webhook URL (Torq endpoint) to configure a webhook plugin in Power Automate.

Step One: Create a Microsoft Forms Trigger Integration in Torq

Navigate to the Trigger: Go to Build &gt; Integrations &gt; Triggers &gt; Microsoft Forms and click Add.

1. Give the integration a unique name. 
2. Click the plus button to add Authentication headers. For Name put <code>auth</code> and you can enter your own secret or click Generate Random Secret.

Finalize: Click Add to save.

Step Four: Using Microsoft Form Responses in Torq

The keys received from PowerAutomate are IDs instead of meaningful names. Instead of complexly editing this in PowerAutomate, leverage the Workflow Parameters utility step to rename the keys to be more accessible.

Now that you've successfully created a Microsoft Forms trigger, you can build your first <a href="https://intercom.help/torqio/en/articles/9130865-integration-triggers-in-torq-ingest-data" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Microsoft Forms-initiated workflow</a>!

In Torq, go to Build &gt; Workflows &gt; Create a Workflow &gt; New Blank Workflow, and select the trigger type: Integrations &gt; Microsoft Forms. Find your new trigger, and automate away!
