How Zapier works
Zapier makes it easy to integrate Google Forms with PostgreSQL - no code necessary. See how you can get setup in minutes.

A trigger is the event that starts your Zap—like a "New Form Response" from Google Forms.
Add your action
An action happens after the trigger—such as "New Row" in PostgreSQL.

Practical ways you can use Google Forms and PostgreSQL
Log survey results into your database
When a new response is submitted in Google Forms, Zapier automatically adds the survey data as a new row in your PostgreSQL database. This automation ensures your database stays current with every response, saving you time on manual data entry while keeping records accurate.
Business OwnerUpdate your database with new form data
When a Google Forms response is updated or added, Zapier ensures your PostgreSQL database reflects the change by creating a new or updated row. This automation simplifies data synchronization, allowing your team to analyze recent data consistently.
Data Science
Feed user feedback into your database
When users submit feedback via Google Forms, Zapier automatically creates a new row in your PostgreSQL table with their input. This automation frees up engineers to focus on technical needs while still receiving real-time user insights.

Frequently Asked Questions about Google Forms + PostgreSQL integrations
New to automation with Zapier? You're not alone. Here are some answers to common questions about how Zapier works with Google Forms and PostgreSQL
How can I integrate Google Forms with PostgreSQL?
You can integrate Google Forms with PostgreSQL using a tool like Zapier. Set up a trigger for new responses in Google Forms, and an action that inserts the data into your PostgreSQL database.
Do I need programming skills to connect Google Forms to PostgreSQL?
No programming skills are required. We offer a simple interface where you can set up triggers and actions to automatically transfer data from Google Forms to PostgreSQL without any coding.
What triggers should I use when connecting Google Forms to PostgreSQL?
The main trigger you would use is 'New Response in Spreadsheet' from Google Forms, which activates whenever there is a new submission. This trigger can then initiate an action to insert the data into your PostgreSQL database.
What happens if a Google Form response doesn’t get recorded in my PostgreSQL database?
If a response doesn't get recorded, check the Zapier task history to identify any issues with the trigger or action setup. Ensure that both services are connected properly and that no errors are reported in task logs.
Can I update existing records in PostgreSQL with responses from Google Forms?
Yes, you can configure an action in Zapier to update existing records in your PostgreSQL database based on specific criteria or identifiers from the form responses.
Is it possible to only select specific fields from my Google Form to be inserted into PostgreSQL?
Yes, during the setup process, you can map specific fields from your Google Form responses to corresponding columns in your PostgreSQL table.
Are there any limitations on syncing data between Google Forms and PostgreSQL?
While we strive for seamless integration, there may be some limitations based on the size of data being transferred and API call limits depending on your subscription plan. Always ensure that your configuration matches our recommended best practices.
