API Resources

forms

• batchUpdate — Change the form with a batch of updates.
• create — Create a new form using the title given in the provided form message in the request. Important: Only the form.info.title and form.info.document_title fields are copied to the new form. All other fields including the form description, items and settings are disallowed. To create a new form and add items, you must first call forms.create to create an empty form with a title and (optional) document title, and then call forms.update to add the items.
• get — Get a form.
• setPublishSettings — Updates the publish settings of a form. Legacy forms aren't supported because they don't have the publish_settings field.
• responses — Operations on the 'responses' resource
• watches — Operations on the 'watches' resource
