2. Click the Connect button to set up the authorization.
3. A pop-up window will appear for you to log in to your Google account. If you don't see the pop-up window, you may need to allow pop-ups in your browser - please look for the settings in your browser URL bar, or use instructions for Chrome, Firefox, Opera, Edge, or Safari.

2. You can move to your new sheet by choosing the View Sheet button. If you need to replace the file, you can select the option Disconnect sheet.
How to connect the existing sheet

2. Go to the sheet you'd like to pass the responses to, copy the URL from the access bar:
3. Paste into the URL field, and click Connect. You will see a green notification that your survey is connected to Google Sheets.
β If you are using an existing sheet, make sure to have editor permissions on the sheet you are trying to connect.

π‘If your survey already has collected responses, here you can decide whether or not you'd like to pass your past responses to the newly chosen sheet.
If you select to send your past response, you'll see them in the sheet in a brief moment. If you didn't send the past answers, we will send all new responses to your file.
Here is an example of what a spreadsheet will look like:
If you connect a Google Sheet to a survey, we will clear it to start syncing the responses from the first row.
Troubleshooting
Why is my Google Sheets integration not working?
If you are having problems with your Google Sheets integration, it's likely to be due to two causes:
You've made modifications to your sheet name.
Please never change the sheet name, which is automatically created. This will distort the integration.You've reached the maximum row limit on your sheet.
Make sure that you've not reached a maximum row limit in your sheet - in that case, data will not be sent. See the official guide here.
Some survey answers are missing from the connected Google Sheet
Please don't rearrange or delete columns or rows in the sheet connected to Survicate - our integration operates on column and row order, and when any changes are applied, it can cause problems.
If none of the above applies to your case, please reauthorize integration in Settings > Integrations. Then, try to answer your survey and check if the data is sent to Google Sheets correctly. If not - please get in touch with our Support team.
Best Practices
Embed surveys to your email
Create a link or email survey to send it right in your email message or pass the direct link to your respondents.
