Core Forms sends JSON to a Google Apps Script web app. The maintained receiver uses a shared secret and appends values according to the sheet’s header row. No service-account upload or OAuth connection is provided.

What you get

How Google Sheets works in Core Forms

Apps Script connection

Shared secret

Set the same secret in the script properties and the Core Forms action.

Set it up

Connect Google Sheets in 3 minutes

  1. 1

    Install the receiver

    Copy the downloadable script into Apps Script. Set CF_SHARED_SECRET, SPREADSHEET_ID, and optionally SHEET_NAME in Script Properties.

  2. 2

    Deploy the web app

    Execute as yourself and allow anyone to access the URL. The shared secret protects the receiver.
