Send responses to Google Sheets

Keep a running sheet of your form’s responses, one row each, updated on its own. This goes through an automation tool, so connect that first: n8n, Zapier or Make.

We wrote these steps from each tool’s documentation, and haven’t run them with a real Google account yet.

Set up your sheet

Create a sheet, with one column for each answer you want, plus these two: Event ID and Received. Put the names in the first row.

Add the row

ToolStep to addMap
ZapierGoogle Sheets, event Create Spreadsheet RowEach column to a field under data, fields
MakeGoogle Sheets, the module that adds a rowEach column to a value under data, fields
n8nGoogle Sheets, operation Append Row, with Map Each Column ManuallyEach column to {{ $json.body.data.fields.your_field }}

Map Event ID to the event’s id, and Received to data.submission.receivedAt. Then send a test from Formerie, check the row, and delete it.

Good to know

  • A delivery can arrive twice. With n8n, use Append or Update Row, matching on Event ID, so a repeat updates its row. With the others, a filter on a lookup of Event ID does the same.
  • Test sends have test set to true. Filter them out, as the tool’s guide shows.
  • A sheet holds your visitors’ answers. Share it with care, and remember that removing a response in Formerie doesn’t remove its row.
