Creating a Form
Start by creating a new form or editing an existing one to access the form builder. In the form builder, go ahead and add the fields you’d like to use.
Be sure to include the Repeater field in your form. For our example, we’ll create a form to collect user’s details and social media profiles.

Connecting Your Form With Google Sheets
In the form builder, go to Settings » Google Sheets and select the Add New Connection button.
After that, you can select an existing Google Sheets spreadsheet from your account or create a new one by selecting the Select Existing or Create New options, respectively. For this example, we’ll select the Create New option.
After that, you can enter a Spreadsheet Name and Sheet Name if you’d like.
Next, you’ll need to map the fields on your forms to columns in Google Sheets.
Be sure to map the Repeater field to a column on your Spreadsheet.
Once you’re done mapping your form fields, save your changes. We recommend testing your form to ensure it looks and functions properly.
