Is Forms Safe?/ Limiting upload types in forms

asked on March 19, 2019 Show version history

I have a public form in which users can upload documents. My concern is that a malicious user can use this as a portal to upload a virus. In theory, Forms could send this virus straight to a recipient's email and even to the repository.

  1.  Are there any protections against this?
  2.  Can I at least put constraints on the types of files that can be uploaded?

Yes, you as a form designer can choose which file extensions are allowed to be uploaded to the form. You can also limit the maximum file size. Another protection we offer is reCAPTCHA, which is helpful to prevent any bots that may be programmed to fill out your form and try to submit malicious files.
