The objective of this article is to demonstrate the power of Microsoft services available to create survey/quiz and automate processes without using any code.
Let us first create a quiz/survey on Microsoft Form, and publish it on Microsoft Teams. Login to Microsoft Forms and create a new quiz with appropriate points. Click on Share to get the response link to the created quiz. This link is posted on Microsoft Teams to get responses (This is explained at the later point of this article).

Notification - Configuring the flow to send out notifications
Let us configure the flow to send out notifications to users, once they complete the survey/quiz. The notification in this case will be, a post on Teams channel acknowledging the completion. The flow goes like the following.
- Trigger on Response submission.
- Capture the details of person (Email ID) who responded, that comes as part of response.
- First response ID identified, and assigned to a variable. The expression to identify the response ID will be: first(triggerBody()?['value'])?['resourceData']?['responseId']
- Then more details retrieved using the response ID.
- User ID is identified from the above step.

- Post the message onto Microsoft Team’s channel, with survey completion message with details of person who responded.
