Thanks Ashton, amazing Job!

Thanks Ashton! Very useful tutorial and just what i was looking for. Quick tip for anyone who is unable to get this to work, its likely you missed an important step of "setting up a trigger" 1. In the "Appscript" window, you will see a left panel where the third from top would be a "clock" icon 2. Click the "clock" icon and on this window, create a new trigger 3. In the popup, leave all default values except for the last drop-down "Select event-type" = "On form submit" 4. Click save Now, submit response on google form and you should start seeing the UID_Header field getting populated with IDs. Good luck!

Hi Ashton! Thanks so Much for this! Really Helpful! Can you write a script to also trigger a What's app Message with Form Summary?

Thanks so Much

Thanks!!

Thanks Boss (Ashton)

How can i properly adapt the script into my own work? im having alot of trouble trying to adjust it

Thanks for the video, can you upload another video to show to connect to the sheet with the script please, or any other video show how to connect

Thank you

Thanks a lot

You are my god

Very much thanks. Please, explain the script more than template.

I have one scenario where in sheet i have two columns - one is containing Id and other is containing Name . So in google form , If I select ID in one field then wanted name in next field automatically and in disabled mode

I'm having trouble with the script. The UID does not seem to increment.

Thanks for this. I Tried it on one of my forms and it generates the same UID number for every entry. It doesn't change at all. How do I fix it?

i want to apply this script in form which have already made in previous . but it is not worked . please help.

i have create new script and pasted the code. also i have editing response section in google form . also i have give header name as same as in my google sheet. assigned trigger for that. but at last trigger show 100% error. i am very upset to do that after doing lot of time... help???? what i can do now...???

What if the same person submitted again? Is it possible to get the previous ID the person had?

I am getting this error eventhough I have added UID00001 in confirmation meassge."No UID found in the current confirmation message with regex"

Can you advice me on how to set up the email for this please? can someone share the link?

sometimes it is not giving uid number just skipping the number kidly help me y

anyone know if there is a way of getting the id to display on the form?

AMAZING AND THANKS DEAR ASHTON, IS IT POSSIBLE TO SHOW THE CITY NAME (OR ANY ELSE FILED) IN THE CONFIRMATION MESSAGE AFTER SUBMISSION.

Sorry, I have to say not possible. The confirmation message is updated before the user submits the form. We can’t predict user’s input when we update it.

I'd like to also have the ID display in the email subject line for each submission so I can easily find unique submissions when searching my inbox. Can this be done or at least how do I get the ID in the email so I can search for that specific submission? We currently receive submissions to our email inboxes and then respond to customers from there so having this ID in the subject line is ideal. Do you have a video on that?

Yes, Lacey. That’s possible with a script to handle the id generation and email notification. We can customize email subject and body.
