1. Overview
Google Forms is Google’s survey and intake-form service. Forms collect responses, which can also be linked to a Google Sheet. Once connected, your UnleashX agent can create forms, add text and multiple-choice questions, read form properties, list and read responses, and (via the linked response spreadsheet) update or delete response rows. It can also list your forms, spreadsheets, and sheets. Connecting Google Forms to UnleashX makes data collection actionable: spin up an intake form, pull the latest submissions into a workflow, or clean up response data — all from natural language.2. What you’ll need

No admin access? On a managed Google Workspace account, your admin may need to allow UnleashX before authorization succeeds.
3. Get your credentials
Google Forms uses Google OAuth 2.0. You do not create or paste an API key. UnleashX redirects you to Google, you sign in once, and Google issues an access token to UnleashX automatically.Start the connection in UnleashX

There is no key to copy. Access is granted by your Google sign-in and can be revoked anytime at your Google Account permissions page.
