What Google Forms is

Google Forms is a web tool for creating forms, surveys, and quizzes to gather information. Users can build with different question types and a drag-and-drop interface, or begin with premade templates. Questions can change based on earlier answers, and forms can be shared by email or social media or embedded on a website. Colors, images, and fonts can be adjusted to match organizational branding. As responses arrive, Forms displays charts in real time and can export raw data to Google Sheets; collaborators can work on forms and analyze results. For people filling out a form while signed in to a Google Account, progress is saved as a draft for 30 days. Google says files created in Forms or uploaded to Drive are encrypted in transit and at rest, and Forms undergoes independent verification of its security, privacy, and compliance controls. The Forms API supports creating and modifying forms and quizzes, retrieving responses and quiz grades, and receiving push notifications. Google Forms has a free plan. Google Workspace offers a 14-day trial, but its page does not specify that the trial applies specifically to Forms.
