Are Google Forms still working for others?

Are the Google Forms still working? I had a sprout w/ two forms that worked fine up until late last evening. Then, they just stopped working. I played with the various Google forms settings, but no luck.

I also noticed that Google may have made some changes to their forms last evening - for instance, a new "Forms" tab appears in Google spreadsheets that (if memory serves) I haven't seen before. Additionally, some of the form setting behaviors appear slightly different than they have in the past.

So, a) has anyone else experienced this? b) if so is there a work around / fix?

Thanks!

We're very sorry, our Google forms component is not working at the moment. We love that we're able to mashup great 3rd party services like google forms into sprout to give you a wide variety of services, but while that's what makes sprout great, we're also at the mercy of those 3rd party services as far as when they change something on their end, we have to scramble to catch up and comply with their new spec. In the future we will be working with all of our 3rd party services to try to catch these problems before you do ;)

We should have the Google forms problem fixed by the end of the day.

Thank you for your patience,

Austin

Yeah -

I was (well am) having the same problem :( BUT I am sure that he Sprout team is all over it! I have built tons of Sprouts (they have not limited my account yet hehehe) and teh Sprout team is flawless. I am trusting them with some rather "big" work!

Cheers!

Hello All,

Google forms component is up and running again... also, there are some new features. part of the reason that it was broken is that google release two new features into their forms:

Scale (1-n), which is a set of radio buttons that let your viewers choose 1,2,3,4,5, etc. (like "on a scale of 1 to 10 how do you rate something"
validation for "required" fields

While just getting the form to work again was our main goal, our SW team also included support for these new features as well. We've tested those new feature but with only a day to test, if anyone sees any problems with them, please let us know.

Best,

Austin

Zohar and Mandricus,

Please try clearing your browser's temporary cache. If that doesn't work, please post your Public Sprout Page (you can get the URL from the project tray) and we'll investigate
