--- name: google-forms description: | Google Forms API integration with managed OAuth. Create forms, add questions, and retrieve responses. Use this skill when users want to interact with Google Forms. For other third party apps, use the api-gateway skill (https://clawhub.ai/byungkyu/api-gateway). compatibility: Requires network access and valid Maton API key metadata: author: maton version: "1.0" clawdbot: emoji: 🧠 requires: env: - MATON_API_KEY --- # Google Forms Access the Google Forms API with managed OAuth authentication. Create forms, add questions, and retrieve responses. ## Quick Start ```bash # Get form python <<'EOF' import urllib.request, os, json req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/google-forms/v1/forms/{formId}') req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}') print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2)) EOF ``` ## Base URL ``` https://api.maton.ai/google-forms/{native-api-path} ``` Maton proxies requests to `forms.googleapis.com` and automatically injects your OAuth token. ## Authentication All requests require the Maton API key in the Authorization header: ``` Authorization: Bearer $MATON_API_KEY ``` **Environment Variable:** Set your API key as `MATON_API_KEY`: ```bash export MATON_API_KEY="YOUR_API_KEY" ``` ### Getting Your API Key 1. Sign in or create an account at [maton.ai](https://maton.ai) 2. Go to [maton.ai/settings](https://maton.ai/settings) 3. Copy your API key ## Connection Management Manage your Google OAuth connections at `https://api.maton.ai`. ### List Connections ```bash python <<'EOF' import urllib.request, os, json req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/connections?app=google-forms&status=ACTIVE') req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}') print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2)) EOF ``` ### Create Connection ```bash python <<'EOF' import urllib.request, os, json data = json.dumps({'app': 'google-forms'}).encode() req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/connections', data=data, method='POST') req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}') req.add_header('Content-Type', 'application/json') print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2)) EOF ``` ### Get Connection ```bash python <<'EOF' import urllib.request, os, json req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/connections/{connection_id}') req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}') print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2)) EOF ``` **Response:** ```json { "connection": { "connection_id": "{connection_id}", "status": "ACTIVE", "creation_time": "2025-12-08T07:20:53.488460Z", "last_updated_time": "2026-01-31T20:03:32.593153Z", "url": "https://connect.maton.ai/?session_token=...", "app": "google-forms", "metadata": {} } } ``` Open the returned `url` in a browser to complete OAuth authorization. ### Delete Connection ```bash python <<'EOF' import urllib.request, os, json req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/connections/{connection_id}', method='DELETE') req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}') print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2)) EOF ``` ### Specifying Connection If you have multiple Google Forms connections, specify which one to use with the `Maton-Connection` header: ```bash python <<'EOF' import urllib.request, os, json req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/google-forms/v1/forms/{formId}') req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}') req.add_header('Maton-Connection', '{connection_id}') print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2)) EOF ``` If you have multiple connections, always include this header to ensure requests go to the intended account. ## Security & Permissions - Access is scoped to forms, questions, responses, and form metadata within the connected Google Forms account. - **All write operations require explicit user approval.** Before executing any create, update, or delete call, confirm the target resource and intended effect with the user. ## API Reference ### Get Form ```bash GET /google-forms/v1/forms/{formId} ``` ### Create Form ```bash POST /google-forms/v1/forms Content-Type: application/json { "info": { "title": "Customer Feedback Survey" } } ``` ### Batch Update Form ```bash POST /google-forms/v1/forms/{formId}:batchUpdate Content-Type: application/json { "requests": [ { "createItem": { "item": { "title": "What is your name?", "questionItem": { "question": { "required": true, "textQuestion": {"paragraph": false} } } }, "location": {"index": 0} } } ] } ``` ### List Responses ```bash GET /google-forms/v1/forms/{formId}/responses ``` ### Get Response ```bash GET /google-forms/v1/forms/{formId}/responses/{responseId} ``` ## Common batchUpdate Requests ### Create Text Question ```json { "createItem": { "item": { "title": "Question text", "questionItem": { "question": { "required": true, "textQuestion": {"paragraph": false} } } }, "location": {"index": 0} } } ``` ### Create Multiple Choice ```json { "createItem": { "item": { "title": "Select an option", "questionItem": { "question": { "choiceQuestion": { "type": "RADIO", "options": [ {"value": "Option A"}, {"value": "Option B"} ] } } } }, "location": {"index": 0} } } ``` ### Create Scale Question ```json { "createItem": { "item": { "title": "Rate your experience", "questionItem": { "question": { "scaleQuestion": { "low": 1, "high": 5, "lowLabel": "Poor", "highLabel": "Excellent" } } } }, "location": {"index": 0} } } ``` ## Question Types - `textQuestion` - Short or paragraph text - `choiceQuestion` - Radio, checkbox, or dropdown - `scaleQuestion` - Linear scale - `dateQuestion` - Date picker - `timeQuestion` - Time picker ## Code Examples ### JavaScript ```javascript const response = await fetch( 'https://api.maton.ai/google-forms/v1/forms/FORM_ID/responses', { headers: { 'Authorization': `Bearer ${process.env.MATON_API_KEY}` } } ); ``` ### Python ```python import os import requests response = requests.get( f'https://api.maton.ai/google-forms/v1/forms/FORM_ID/responses', headers={'Authorization': f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}'} ) ``` ## Notes - Form IDs are found in the form URL - Use `updateMask` to specify fields to update - Location index is 0-based - IMPORTANT: When using curl commands, use `curl -g` when URLs contain brackets to disable glob parsing - IMPORTANT: When piping curl output to `jq` or other commands, environment variables like `$MATON_API_KEY` may not expand correctly in some shell environments. You may get "Invalid API key" errors when piping. ## Error Handling | Status | Meaning | |--------|---------| | 400 | Missing Google Forms connection | | 401 | Invalid or missing Maton API key | | 429 | Rate limited (10 req/sec per account) | | 4xx/5xx | Passthrough error from Google Forms API | ### Troubleshooting: API Key Issues 1. Check that the `MATON_API_KEY` environment variable is set: ```bash echo $MATON_API_KEY ``` 2. Verify the API key is valid by listing connections: ```bash python <<'EOF' import urllib.request, os, json req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/connections') req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}') print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2)) EOF ``` ### Troubleshooting: Invalid App Name 1. Ensure your URL path starts with `google-forms`. For example: - Correct: `https://api.maton.ai/google-forms/v1/forms/{formId}` - Incorrect: `https://api.maton.ai/forms/v1/forms/{formId}` ## Resources - [Forms API Overview](https://developers.google.com/workspace/forms/api/reference/rest) - [Get Form](https://developers.google.com/workspace/forms/api/reference/rest/v1/forms/get) - [Create Form](https://developers.google.com/workspace/forms/api/reference/rest/v1/forms/create) - [Batch Update](https://developers.google.com/workspace/forms/api/reference/rest/v1/forms/batchUpdate) - [List Responses](https://developers.google.com/workspace/forms/api/reference/rest/v1/forms.responses/list) - [Maton Community](https://discord.com/invite/dBfFAcefs2) - [Maton Support](mailto:[REDACTED_SECRET])
