An enum representing the supported types of form items. Item types can be accessed from FormApp.ItemType.
To call an enum, you call its parent class, name, and property. For example,
FormApp.ItemType.CHECKBOX.
// Open a form by ID and add a new section header.
var form = FormApp.create('Form Name');
var item = form.addSectionHeaderItem();
item.setTitle('Title of new section');
// Check the item type.
if (item.getType() == FormApp.ItemType.SECTION_HEADER) {
item.setHelpText('Description of new section.');
}
