1. Setting Up Pabbly Connect for Google Forms and TickTick Integration

To create a new task in TickTick from Google Form responses, you first need to set up Pabbly Connect. This automation tool allows you to connect Google Forms with TickTick seamlessly. Start by signing up for a free Pabbly Connect account through the link provided in the description.

Once you have signed up, log into your Pabbly Connect dashboard. Click on ‘Create Workflow’ and name your workflow something like ‘Google Forms to TickTick’. This naming helps you identify the workflow later. After naming, click on ‘Create’ to open your workflow where you will set up the triggers and actions.

2. Connecting Google Forms to Pabbly Connect

In the first step of your workflow, you need to connect Google Forms to Pabbly Connect. Choose Google Forms as your application in the trigger section. For the event, select ‘New Response Received’. This setup allows Pabbly Connect to trigger whenever a new form response is submitted.

• Select Google Forms as the app.
• Choose ‘New Response Received’ as the trigger event.
• Copy the webhook URL provided by Pabbly Connect.

Next, you will need to link this webhook to your Google Form. To do this, open your Google Form and navigate to the ‘Responses’ tab. Click on the ‘Link to Sheets’ option to create a new spreadsheet to collect responses. Once the spreadsheet is created, go to ‘Extensions’, then ‘Add-ons’, and install the Pabbly Connect Webhooks add-on.

3. Configuring Google Sheets for Pabbly Connect

After installing the Pabbly Connect Webhooks add-on, you need to configure it to send data to Pabbly Connect. Open your Google Sheets where the form responses are collected. Refresh the page to ensure the add-on is active. Go back to ‘Extensions’, find Pabbly Connect Webhooks, and click on ‘Initial Setup’.

• Select the sheet where responses are stored.
• Paste the copied webhook URL into the designated field.
• Set the trigger column to the last column of data (e.g., Column E).

Once you have configured the settings, click ‘Submit’ to save your setup. This step ensures that every new form response will automatically send data to your Pabbly Connect workflow, allowing for the next steps to proceed smoothly.

4. Creating Tasks in TickTick via Pabbly Connect

With the Google Forms integration set up, the next step is to create a task in TickTick using Pabbly Connect. In the action section of your workflow, choose TickTick as the application and select ‘Create Task’ as the action event. Click on ‘Connect’ and authorize Pabbly Connect to access your TickTick account.

After connecting, you will need to specify the project ID for the task you want to create. Open your TickTick account, navigate to the project where you want the new task to be added, and copy the project ID from the URL. Paste this ID into the corresponding field in Pabbly Connect.

Map the task title from the Google Form responses. Map the task description, start date, due date, and time zone as specified in the form. Select task priority and other relevant details.

Once all fields are mapped correctly, click on ‘Save & Send Test Request’ to test the integration. If successful, a new task will appear in your TickTick account based on the Google Form submission.

5. Testing the Integration and Finalizing the Setup

To ensure everything is working properly, you should perform a test submission via your Google Form. Fill out the form with sample data and submit it. After submission, return to Pabbly Connect to check if the data has been received. You should see the new response captured in the trigger section.

If the response appears correctly, it indicates that Pabbly Connect is functioning as intended. Check your TickTick account to confirm that a new task has been created based on the details provided in the Google Form. This end-to-end testing ensures that the automation is seamless and reliable.

By following these steps, you can effectively automate the task creation process in TickTick using responses from Google Forms. This integration not only saves time but also ensures that no tasks are overlooked, enhancing productivity.
