Questions related to interacting programmatically with the Google Forms service through the internal api or the external api. A language tag should also be included, e.g. [google-apps-script], [python]. Questions about general use of Google Apps should be posted on Web Applications Stack Exchange.
Google Forms is a cloud-based application and service for creating and hosting surveys and forms. The service supports an internal API for Google Apps Script and a external API. Since the service can replicate form responses into Google Sheets, the responses may be manipulated there after collection, with a broader selection of technologies.
The google-form tag should be applied to questions related to interacting programmatically with the Google Forms service. An additional language tag should also be included, representing the primary application implementation language in the question, e.g. google-apps-script. If the question involves handling of responses in Google Sheets, then the google-sheets tag is also appropriate.
Usage questions about the web application should be posted at Web Applications Stack Exchange instead of here.
