Turn a form into a table

Keep a form’s responses as table rows when you no longer need to collect submissions.

Tables and forms

Convert a form when you want to work with its collected answers as a table. The conversion keeps the response rows and removes the form.

Before you start

You need Full access on the form and its backing table. You also need Can edit or Full access on the destination folder, or the workspace member, admin, or owner role when the destination is the workspace root.

Convert the form

  1. Open the form’s Responses tab to review the collected answers.
  2. Open Form actions beside New field.
  3. Select Convert to table.
  4. Accept the browser confirmation that begins Convert this form to a plain table?
  5. Open Search and search for the form’s original name followed by responses. Select the matching table result to open the converted table.

What happens next

The response table moves into the form’s former location. Its rows stay in place. Collaborator access carries over, while public-link and submitter-only access end with the form. Can see responses becomes Can comment on the table.

Follow Create a table for adding fields, records, and views to a table.
