Google Forms

Google Forms response automation

Google Forms gets a deceptively narrow API surface — Tiny Command exposes one trigger (Response Submitted — fires when someone submits a form response) plus four actions (List Forms, Get Form returning the question schema, Get Response, Get Responses paginated history). The connection uses Google OAuth with the forms.readonly or forms.body scope; the user picks a form at trigger setup. Response Submitted is the workflow trigger for every form-to-anywhere pattern: lead form → CRM contact, support form → ticket system, RSVP form → calendar event. The payload includes the responseId, the submission timestamp, the respondent email (when the form requires sign-in), and the answers array keyed by question ID. Crucially, the answer values are strings (or arrays of strings for multi-select) — Google doesn't type the answers by question type at the API level, so a checkbox answer is `["Yes", "Maybe"]` and a date answer is `"2026-06-15"`. The question ID-to-text mapping comes from Get Form, which workflows typically cache and join in a downstream Map step.

Triggers

Workflows start when Google Forms does.

1 real-time trigger, each backed by a webhook subscription. Events arrive within seconds and you don't have to set up polling.

Actions

Do anything Google Forms can do, from a workflow.

Every action accepts dynamic inputs from upstream nodes, whether that's an AI output, a form field, or a search result.

ActionWhat it does
Get Google FormReturns the form definition with questions, IDs, and labels. The lookup for resolving question IDs to readable labels in downstream notifications — Google Forms uses opaque question IDs in submissions.
Get Form ResponseReturns a specific response by ID with all answers. Useful for re-fetching responses captured via webhook with richer detail.
List Form ResponsesPaginated responses for a specific form. Useful for backfill workflows that catch responses missed during webhook downtime or for periodic batch-processing of all responses.
List Google FormsReturns forms the connected account can see. Useful for resolving form IDs at workflow setup or for inventorying form catalog.

Before you build

Three things worth knowing.

Filter at the trigger

Tiny Command counts a run the moment a trigger fires. Filtering early means only matching events spend your usage budget.

Authorize once, reuse anywhere

Connect Google Forms once and every workflow on your account can use its triggers and actions. You don't have to re-auth per workflow.

No JSON to read

Every Google Forms field shows up in the visual picker for downstream nodes. The raw payload is there for power users, optional for everyone else.

FAQ

Questions about the Google Forms integration.

If we missed yours, ping support. We usually reply within an hour.

How do I connect Google Forms to Tiny Command?
Open the Tiny Command workflow builder, drop in a Google Forms node, and click Connect. Authorize Google Forms once and any workflow on your account can use its triggers and actions. Most teams finish the connection in under two minutes.
What Google Forms triggers does Tiny Command support?
Tiny Command supports 1 real-time Google Forms trigger, including "Google Forms Response Submitted". Each trigger fires within seconds of the event happening in Google Forms.
What Google Forms actions can I run from a workflow?
4 Google Forms actions are available out of the box, covering forms & surveys operations like "Get Google Form". Every action accepts dynamic inputs from upstream nodes, whether that's a search result, an AI output, or a form field.
Is the Google Forms integration real-time?
Yes. Google Forms Response Submitted and every other Google Forms trigger uses webhooks or push subscriptions, so workflows fire within seconds of the event in Google Forms rather than on a polling schedule.
Do I need to write code to use Google Forms with Tiny Command?
No. Every Google Forms trigger and action is fully configurable from the visual workflow builder. For edge cases that aren't covered, drop in a custom HTTP node and call any Google Forms API endpoint directly.

There's a free tier you can start on without a credit card. Higher run volumes and team features come with paid plans. The Google Forms integration itself has no per-app surcharge.
