Chapter 2. Create and Manipulate Forms

In January 2013, Google launched a new version of Google forms that was more customizable, richer in many new features, shareable between any number of editors, and—even more important to us—could be created and modified using Google Apps Script.

This feature made it possible to imagine a lot of potential applications. Some of these applications could be used for the following:

  • To change questions every day, automatically

  • To modify the form for future respondents based on responses from the past

  • To remove or add questions depending on any external parameter (such as the day of the week or the time of day)
