Depending on your setup, data should flow between Google Forms and Paypal (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 Paypal
Google Forms + Paypal + Google Sheets: When a new form is submitted in Google Forms, the workflow checks for payment via Paypal. Once payment is confirmed, a new row is added to a Google Sheet with the form submission data and payment details.
Paypal + Google Forms + Slack: Upon receiving a payment via Paypal, the workflow retrieves the related order details possibly submitted through Google Forms (assuming a shared identifier). Then, it sends a message to a designated Slack channel notifying the team about the new payment.
