How to connect Google Forms and Slack
Create a New Scenario to Connect Google Forms and Slack
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 Slack will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Google Forms or Slack, 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.

- Plug n Play Nodes: Use nodes that don’t require account credentials.
- Ask AI: Use the GPT-powered option to add AI capabilities to any node.
- Wait: Set waiting times, either for intervals or until specific dates.
- Sub-scenarios (Nodules): Create sub-scenarios that are encapsulated in a single node.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Google Forms, Slack, 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 Slack integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Google Forms and Slack (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 Slack
Google Forms + Google Sheets + Slack: When a new response is submitted in Google Forms, the data is added to a Google Sheet. Then, a summary of the submission is sent to a designated Slack channel.
Slack + Google Forms + Jira: When a new message is posted to a specific Slack channel, trigger a Google Form to collect additional information. Then, create a support ticket in Jira with the form's data and Slack conversation context.
