Google-forms – How to allow file upload without login in Google Forms

google-formsupload

I would like to create a Google form for submission of abstracts. Participants should have the option to add images, Excel files, or PDF. However, as soon as I add the File upload field in Forms, one has to log in to participate in the survey.

  1. Is there a way to allow file upload without logging in (in the worst case using third-party platforms)?
  2. If not, what would be a good alternative to Google Forms that allows this?

Unfortunately, Google Forms does not allow anonymous uploads. All uploaders need to be logged in with Google accounts. The workaround would be to use some external 3rd-party cloud/server as a gathering point for uploaded files.
