Introduction
In this article, we will learn about How to Merge Multiple Google Forms into One Large Form?
In today's digital age, data collection has become an integral part of various processes. Whether it's conducting surveys, gathering feedback, or organizing event registrations, Google Forms has emerged as a popular tool for creating and managing online forms.
Unfortunately, Google Forms doesn't have the capability of copy-and-paste. It's very time-consuming and error-prone to type the questions correctly.
Now you don't have to. We built a small web application to relieve this pain, called Form Merger. Let's see how it solved this problem.
Understanding the Need for Merging Forms
Before we delve into the process, let's understand why merging multiple Google Forms can be beneficial. Combining forms allows you to streamline your data collection efforts, avoid duplication, and create a more comprehensive and cohesive experience for your respondents.
Step 1. Get Form Merger from G Suite Marketplace
- Go to our Form Merger page.
- Click the GET IT ON G Suite Marketplace button.
- In the G Suite Marketplace, Click Install button.
- Then it will ask you to login and Allow permissions to read / write Forms files in your Google Drive.
- You will soon redirected into the application.
Step 2. Select Forms to Merge
The application will present you with its main interface. And
- Click Select Forms.
