How to Connect Flexform to Google Sheets

Connect Google

In FlexForm's workflow settings, click "Add Google Sheets" and sign in with Google to authorize.

Select spreadsheet

Choose an existing spreadsheet (or let FlexForm create one named after your form). Select the sheet tab.

Review column mapping

FlexForm generates column headers from your form field labels. Rearrange or rename columns if needed.

Publish

Every submission now appends a row instantly. Open the sheet at any time to see a live log of all responses.

Flexform + Google Sheets Use Cases

Submission log for ops teams

All form responses in one sheet. Ops and admins can filter, sort, and share without needing a FlexForm login.

NPS and survey data for analysis

Survey responses sync to Sheets where your data analyst can run formulas, pivot tables, and chart trends in their preferred tool.

Event RSVP tracker

RSVPs append in real time. Your event team sees the running headcount, dietary restrictions, and t-shirt sizes in one shared sheet.

HR request log

Leave requests, expense reports, and IT tickets all log to separate sheets for the relevant team to review and action.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does FlexForm create the Google Sheet automatically?

Yes. If you don't select an existing spreadsheet, FlexForm creates a new one named after your form with column headers matching your field labels.

Does Google Sheets sync in real time?

Yes. The row is appended within 1–2 seconds of submission via the Google Sheets API — no polling or scheduled sync.

Can I use a Google Sheet that already has data?

Yes. FlexForm appends to whatever sheet you select, below existing rows. It does not modify existing data.

Can one form sync to multiple Google Sheets?

Yes. Add multiple "Google Sheets" workflow actions pointing to different spreadsheets. Useful for sending data to both a master log and a team-specific sheet.
