Connect a provider Link to this section
Connect Google Sheets or Microsoft Excel Online to your workspace once, then enable syncing per form. The connection is authorised securely and the tokens are stored encrypted, with refresh handled for you.
Disconnecting removes the stored tokens and turns off syncing on every form that used them. For Google, TinyForms also withdraws the access you granted. Microsoft offers no way to withdraw one application's access on its own, so remove TinyForms from the apps with access to your Microsoft account if you want that too. The spreadsheets themselves stay where they are.
How sync works Link to this section
- A spreadsheet is created automatically with a header row of your field labels.
- Each new submission is appended as a row.
- When you first enable sync, past submissions are backfilled.
Never blocks a submission
Syncing runs in the background. If the spreadsheet is unreachable, the submission is still saved and the sync simply retries.
