Google Forms + Slack + Image-Charts

Send Slack channel messages with bar charts via Image-Charts from new Google Forms responses

After someone fills out a Google Form, you’ll want to be able to see a summary of the responses without pulling up Google Forms submission summaries and clicking through individual submissions. This Zapier automation fixes that headache, sending a Slack notification with a summary of form submission data as a bar chart. You’ll never have to break with your workflow to see a survey response again.
