FormApp.FeedbackType.CORRECT.
// Open a form by ID and add a new list item.constform=FormApp.openById('1234567890abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz');constitem=form.addListItem();item.setTitle('Do you prefer cats or dogs?');// Set "Dogs" as the correct answer to this question.item.setChoices([item.createChoice('Dogs',true),item.createChoice('Cats',false),]);// Add feedback which will be shown for correct responses; ie "Dogs".item.setFeedbackForCorrect(FormApp.createFeedback().setDisplayText('Dogs rule, cats drool.').build(),);
