FAQs
How do I enable confirmation emails in Google Forms?
To enable confirmation emails, open your form, go to "Settings," then the "Responses" tab, and toggle "Collect email addresses" and "Response receipts." Set receipt option to "Always" to ensure all respondents receive confirmation emails.
Can I customize the confirmation email content?
Google Forms only sends basic confirmation emails confirming receipt of a response. Customizing the email content isn't supported directly in Google Forms, but third-party add-ons or integrations can help customize messages.
Do respondents need to provide their email addresses?
Yes, to send confirmation emails, you must collect respondents' email addresses. Enable "Collect email addresses" in the form settings to ensure recipients get confirmation messages.
Is there a way to send confirmation emails only sometimes?
Yes, Google Forms lets you choose when to send confirmation emails: always, never, or only if requested by the respondent. This is configurable under "Response receipts" in form settings.
Can I send confirmation emails without respondents logging in?
By default, confirmation emails require respondents to provide an email address, but they don't need to log into a Google account unless enforced by the form creator via "Restrict to users in organization."
How can I test if confirmation emails are working?
Fill out the form using a test email address you have access to, submit the form, and check the inbox to see if the confirmation email arrives correctly.
Are confirmation emails sent instantly after submission?
Yes, Google Forms sends confirmation emails immediately after the respondent submits the form once the option is enabled.
Can I add attachments or images to confirmation emails?
Unfortunately, Google Forms confirmation emails do not support attachments or embedded images. For more complex emails, consider using integrations with third-party email services.
Does enabling confirmation emails affect form analytics or storage?
No, enabling confirmation emails merely sends notifications to respondents. It does not affect how responses are stored or impact form analytics in Google Forms.
Can I disable confirmation emails after initially enabling them?
Yes, you can disable confirmation emails anytime by revisiting the "Settings" > "Responses" tab in Google Forms and turning off the "Response receipts" option or changing it to "Never."
