Is there a function in python that can download Microsoft Forms excel sheet

To download data from a Microsoft Forms response sheet in Python, you'll need to interact with the Microsoft Forms API using the requests library. Microsoft Forms doesn't have an official API, but you can use a workaround to access the Excel file for a specific form response. Here's a step-by-step tutorial with code examples on how to do this:
Prerequisites:
Step 1: Get the Form ID and Response ID
Before you can download the Excel sheet, you need to identify the Form ID and Response ID for the specific form response you want to access. Here's how you can find these:
You'll be taken to an Excel Online sheet. In the URL, you will find the Form ID and Response ID. They will look something like this:
Step 2: Download the Excel Sheet
Now that you have the Form ID and Response ID, you can use Python to download the Excel sheet. Here's a code example for this:
Make sure to replace "YOUR_FORM_ID" and "YOUR_RESPONSE_ID" with the actual Form ID and Response ID you obtained in Step 1.
This code sends a GET request to the Excel download URL, and if the request is successful, it saves the Excel file to your local directory with the name "form_response.xlsx."
Remember that this method may not work if Microsoft updates their Forms platform or if there are any changes in the access mechanism. Additionally, you might need to handle authentication and permissions depending on your Microsoft Forms setup.
