  • Spring Cleaning Your InfoPath Forms: Choosing the Right Path Forward

Microsoft has confirmed that InfoPath support ends on July 14th 2026. After that, organisations relying on InfoPath forms will be running on a platform with no future investment and increasing risk, or if you are using SharePoint Online – it won’t work at all.

Yet despite this, thousands of business-critical forms are still in use today which leaves organisations in a difficult position.

In this webinar, we explore some options for Migrating your InfoPAth Forms, Data, and Discuss Workflow.

One of the biggest mistakes in InfoPath migration is assuming every form should be rebuilt in the same way.

Some are part of broader business processes and would benefit from becoming richer applications. In those cases, Power Apps is often the right direction. It provides flexibility, integration with the wider Power Platform, and the ability to build something far beyond a traditional form.

But that level of capability comes with additional effort. More design. More build time. More complexity to maintain.

For many organisations, the requirement is far more practical. They need to modernise existing SharePoint forms, improve usability, and move away from InfoPath without turning the exercise into a full development project.

That is where a SharePoint-native approach becomes far more compelling.

Lightning Forms allows organisations to replace InfoPath forms quickly, improve the user experience, and retain a familiar working environment. Crucially, it also supports on-premises scenarios, which remains a key requirement for businesses that cannot fully move to the cloud before the 2026 deadline.

In this recorded webinar, we migrate InfoPath Form Libraries, discuss the migration options including Power Apps, Lightning Forms, Lightning Tools Forms Studio, and discuss how to migrate your XML data and how to create the workflows efficiently with Lightning Tools Actions.

As organisations embrace Microsoft Copilot and AI, permissions management has become more important than ever. The challenge isn’t that Copilot creates new security risks—it simply shines a brighter light on the permissions, sharing links, and access decisions that already exist within your Microsoft 365 environment. In this first article of our governance series, I explore the roles of Site Owners and SharePoint Administrators, the risks of oversharing, and how tools such as SharePoint Advanced Management, Data Access Governance, Access Reviews, sharing controls, and sensitivity labels can help organisations prepare for the age of AI.

Copilot is about to expose the permissions problems many organisations never realised they had. In this webinar, Brett Lonsdale explores why traditional IT-led governance models are no longer enough, how oversharing and stale content create serious AI risks, and why empowering SharePoint Site Owners is now essential for Copilot readiness and Microsoft 365 governance.
