How to turn Google Forms responses into monday.com subitems

Why collect responses as subitems?

When a form collects feedback or requests about something that's already on your board, like a client project, the response belongs under that item, not as a new one at the bottom of the group.

Google Forms Integration Plus puts each response where it belongs: as a subitem under the matching item, as a new item, or as an update to one you already have.

How do I set it up?

1. Install Google Forms Integration Plus from the monday.com marketplace. It's free to start.
2. Connect your Google account. Any Google account works, including a free one.
3. On your board, add the automation that creates a subitem under the matching item, and pick your form.
4. Choose which answer finds the parent item, for example the project name, and map each question to a column.

Which automations are there?

• When a form gets a response, create an item and map each answer.
• When a form gets a response, find the matching item and update it.
• When a form gets a response, create a subitem under the matching item.
• When a form gets a response, find the matching subitem and update it.

How do I avoid duplicate items?

Use the update automations. A response can update an existing item or subitem instead of creating a new one, for example an RSVP form that updates the guest already on your list.

How do teams use it?

• Events. Each RSVP becomes an item in the right group on the guest board, with every answer in its own column.
• Marketing. Requests from the team's intake form land straight on the marketing board, ready to assign.

How much does it cost?

There's a free plan with 10 submissions / month. Paid plans run from $35 to $500 a month, or from $28 a month billed yearly. Every plan includes unlimited users, billing runs through your monday.com account, and every plan comes with a full refund within the first 30 days.

What do customers say?

“The setup process for Google Forms Integration Plus was incredibly straightforward. Within just a few minutes, we connected our Google Forms directly to our monday.com workflows, with no need for complex configurations or technical expertise.”

Questions

Do I need a paid Google account?
