How It Works

The Create Form node creates a new Google Form or Quiz. When executed, the node:

1. Validates the required input (Title)
2. Retrieves the Google Forms API credentials
3. Validates the form type selection
4. Uses the Google Forms API to create a new form with the specified title and type
5. Returns the ID of the newly created form

Requirements

• Valid Google Forms API credentials
• Appropriate permissions to create forms
• Valid form title

Error Handling

The node will return specific errors in the following cases:

• Empty or invalid Title
• Invalid or missing Credentials
• Invalid Type selection
• Google Forms API errors during form creation
• Insufficient permissions to create forms

Usage Notes

• The form will be created with the specified title
• Forms and Quizzes are similar, but Quizzes have additional grading features
• The returned form_id can be used with other Google Forms nodes to modify the form
• The form will be created in the Google Drive account associated with the credentials
• Newly created forms are initially empty and require additional nodes to add questions
