What is the Forms to AODocs add-on?

Forms to AODocs is an add-on for Google Forms. It lets you create content quickly in AODocs. It's as easy as filling out a Google Form and submitting it.

The Forms to AODocs add-on creates a bridge between a Google form and an AODocs library. Users answer questions on the Google form that match the AODocs document properties. Files uploaded through the form will become attachments of the AODocs document.

Once the Google Form is linked to the AODocs library, anyone who fills in the Google form will create an AODocs document with properties matching their answers.

Important:
– To associate a form with an AODocs library using the add-on, you must be an administrator of the library.
– The Forms to AODocs add-on is compatible with all types of library.

  • Hi Nieves,
    Yes, that's correct. You just need to make the form available to external users.
    Have a good day!

  • Can I manually map fields between Google Forms and document properties in the add-on?

    For example, I have a document property called "Responsible's Email," but in the Google Form, the corresponding field is labeled "Email del responsable / Responsible's email." Since the add-on doesn’t recognize the field due to the difference in naming, I need a way to manually map the Google Form field to the document property.

  • Hi Hernan,
    Thanks for your question. Currently, the title of a question must be the same as the name of the corresponding AODocs property. You can find information about mapping in this article: https://support.aodocs.com/hc/en-us/articles/115002210966-Configure-your-Google-form-and-preview-your-mappings
    Feel free to make a feature request and others can then vote for it: https://support.aodocs.com/hc/en-us/community/topics/200132124-AODocs-Feature-Requests
    Have a good day!
