How to connect Google Forms and Fauna
Create a New Scenario to Connect Google Forms and Fauna
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.

Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a Google Forms, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Google Forms or Fauna will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Google Forms or Fauna, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the Google Forms Node
Select the Google Forms node from the app selection panel on the right.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Google Forms, Fauna, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the Google Forms and Fauna integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Google Forms and Fauna (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Google Forms and Fauna
Google Forms + Fauna + Slack: When a new response is submitted in Google Forms, the data is stored in a Fauna database. A notification is then sent to a designated Slack channel to alert the team of the new submission.
Google Forms + Fauna + Airtable: Upon receiving a new form submission in Google Forms, the corresponding entry in the Fauna database is updated. Subsequently, the updated data is synchronized to an Airtable spreadsheet for reporting purposes.
