Overview
When someone submits a Google Form, Taskade turns that response into work on its own. Connect Google Forms as a trigger. Each new submission can create a task, notify your team, or route the answers into the right project, with no manual data entry.
TL;DR: Google Forms connects to Taskade automations as one trigger and three actions. The New Response trigger pulls each new form submission in, and Get Form, Get Form Response, and List Form Responses read a form back on demand, so your workspace reacts on its own. Use it to create a task from a submission, notify your team, or route survey responses without manual work.
Here is what the automation looks like in the builder, one trigger feeding two actions:
┌────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ ⚡ Automation: Intake form to task │
├────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ TRIGGER │
│ 📝 New Response · Google Forms │
│ Form: Client Intake │
├────────────────────────────────────────────┤
│ ACTIONS │
│ ➕ Add Task → "New lead: {Name}" │
│ 💬 Send Message → #sales channel │
└────────────────────────────────────────────┘
