# Microsoft Forms results export to dashboard

Upload the file you already download from Microsoft Forms. Every Number reads it with no setup, picks a screen, and puts a receipt on every number.

> The question behind this file
>
> How many people responded this week and how did the answers split per question?

What you get

## Ratings

How answers spread across the scale.

The answers to your rating questions are scales, so it shows how the answers spread for each question.

You can switch it to This period vs last, Key numbers under “How it's read”.

Click any number for its receipt: the rule, the rows it used, and the rows it left out.

## Getting the file

1. ### Download it from Microsoft Forms
   In Microsoft Forms, open the form and select View responses. Select the drop down arrow next to Open results in Excel and choose Download a copy to get a workbook you can upload.

2. ### Know what a row is
   One row is one response.
3. ### Upload it as it is
   No cleanup first. Title rows, totals rows and repeated headers are skipped and listed in each receipt.

**The 5 columns we tested with, from Microsoft Forms's documentation**

ID · Start time · Completion time · Email · Name

## How we know

In our [reading test](https://everynumber.app/exports) (updated Oct 28, 2026), this file got Ratings, the screen that answers the question above. The column names are Microsoft Forms's; the rows were generated to fit them, since we don't have your file. Your export may have more or fewer columns, and Every Number shows how it read each one before you build.
