This video shows how to write flows to run when someone fills in a form that you’ve created. The cloud-based Forms application only exposes one trigger and one action, so there’s not too much that you can do to automate forms using flows, but this tutorial also gives a handy introduction to how to create and distribute surveys using the easy-to-use Forms application.
