How do I get a Google Form's schema?

Short answer: You can get google form in Google Forms by hand from its own interface, but it won’t repeat itself. On TinyCommand, add the Google Forms Get Google Form action to a workflow, map its 1 input from any upstream app, and it runs automatically every time the trigger fires. No code, and a free tier to start.

FAQ

Questions about Get Google Form.

What does the Get Google Form action do in Google Forms?
Returns 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.
What inputs does Get Google Form require?
Required: Form ID. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.
Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?
Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.
What happens if Google Forms returns an error?
The run history shows the failed step with its input and the error message Google Forms returned, so you can fix the input and run the workflow again. Automatic retries are built into HTTP steps only, where you can also set your own retry count and delay.
Does Get Google Form support batch operations?
Run Get Google Form inside a loop to process each item in an array. TinyCommand does not throttle calls for you, so for large arrays add a Delay step if you need to stay within Google Forms's rate limits.
