Tags for Google Forms

When you use Google Forms as a source, Portant gives you three extra tags on top of your form questions: response number, date submitted, and respondent email. This page explains what each one does and where to find it in the source table.

Response number

The number of the response in chronological order.

If you delete a response in Google Forms, the response numbers below it shift up. The response number always reflects the current order, not the original submission order.

This tag sits at the top of the source table:

Date submitted

The date the form was submitted. It's the second-to-last tag at the bottom of the source table:

Respondent email

The email address of the person who filled out the form. It's the last tag in the source table:

This tag only works if your form is set to collect email addresses. See the Google guide for how to enable that.

If your form also has a question that asks for an email address, double check which tag you're using. Mixing the two up is a common reason emails don't appear in the right place.
