Create your playbook and set the Google Forms trigger as "Form response submitted"

After creating your playbook, you can proceed to add your trigger. The trigger detects changes in your connected apps and runs your playbook in response.

To set up this playbook, click "Add trigger" and then select "Form response submitted" under Google Forms. Then, select the form. This will allow your playbook to automatically detect the newly received response in Google Forms and initiate necessary actions.

If this is your first time using a Google Forms integration in Relay.app, a prompt will guide you through the connection process.
