Frequently Asked Questions about Google Docs + Jotform integrations

New to automation with Zapier? You're not alone. Here are some answers to common questions about how Zapier works with Google Docs and Jotform

How can I integrate Google Docs with Jotform through Zapier?

You can integrate Google Docs with Jotform by creating a Zap in our platform. Start by selecting Jotform as your trigger app and choose a specific event, for example, 'New Submission'. Then, select Google Docs as your action app and decide what action you want to occur, such as 'Create Document from Template'. Our system will automate the process of transferring form submissions to a new document in Google Docs.

What triggers can be used from Jotform in a Zap with Google Docs?

When using Jotform in Zaps with Google Docs, you can use triggers like 'New Submission' which activates every time a new form response is submitted. This allows you to automatically push that information into a Google Document for further processing or integration.

Can I customize how data is transferred from Jotform to Google Docs?

Yes, our platform allows you to map fields from your Jotform submission to the corresponding fields in your Google Docs template. This customization ensures that each piece of data from the form response appears exactly where you want it within your document.

Is it possible to update an existing Google Document when there is a new form submission on Jotform?

Currently, our integration focuses on creating new documents rather than updating existing ones. You can use the 'Create Document from Template' action to generate a fresh document each time there’s a new submission.

Do I need any special permissions for integrating Jotform with Google Docs?

Yes, you will need permission to access both your Jotform account and your Google Drive where your documents will be stored. Ensure that our application has the necessary authorization to connect these services through OAuth verification during setup.

What happens if there's an error while transferring data between Jotform and Google Docs?

If an error occurs during the transfer process between Jotform and Google Docs, our platform provides error notifications and detailed logs. You can review these logs within your dashboard for troubleshooting and can re-run tasks if needed after addressing any issues.

Does this integration support multiple users collaborating on the same document once it's created?

Once the document is created in Google Docs via our integration, normal sharing permissions apply. You can invite others to view or edit using Google's native sharing settings. However, simultaneous collaboration within the creation process itself isn't handled by Zapier but rather Google's features post-creation.
