Para dar aos criadores de formulários mais controle sobre quem pode responder, estamos lançando controles granulares para participantes. Os formulários criados com a API após 31 de março de 2026 terão um estado não publicado por padrão. Para saber mais, consulte Mudanças na API dos Formulários Google.
Mantenha tudo organizado com as coleções
Salve e categorize o conteúdo com base nas suas preferências.
Para adicionar conteúdo a um formulário ou atualizar as configurações, os metadados ou o conteúdo, use o método
batchUpdate(), que agrupa as mudanças em um lote. Assim, se uma
solicitação falhar, nenhuma das outras mudanças (potencialmente dependentes) será gravada.
O método batchUpdate() retorna um corpo de resposta, que contém uma resposta para cada solicitação. Cada resposta ocupa o mesmo índice da solicitação correspondente. Para solicitações sem uma resposta aplicável, a resposta nesse índice estará vazia.

Atualizar metadados, configurações ou itens
O exemplo a seguir mostra como atualizar os metadados de um formulário, mas a estrutura
é a mesma para conteúdo e configurações. Eles usam as solicitações updateItem ou
updateSettings em vez de updateFormInfo. Para cada solicitação, forneça o nome do campo a ser mudado e o valor atualizado, além de um valor updateMask para limitar as mudanças aos campos especificados.
REST
Para atualizar a descrição do formulário, chame o método
batchUpdate()
com o ID do formulário e o valor da descrição atualizada.

Adicionar um item
O exemplo a seguir mostra como adicionar conteúdo novo a um formulário. Ao adicionar novo conteúdo, é preciso fornecer um local com um índice em que ele será inserido. Por exemplo, um local com índice 0 vai inserir o conteúdo no
início do formulário.
REST
Para adicionar um item ao formulário, chame o método
batchUpdate()
com o ID do formulário e as informações e o local desejado do item.

Ordem de solicitação
O método batchUpdate()
aceita uma matriz de sub-solicitações, como createItem e updateItem.
As sub-solicitações são validadas uma por vez na ordem em que são fornecidas.
Exemplo: uma solicitação batchUpdate tem uma matriz requests com duas sub-solicitações createItem. A subsolicitação A tem location.index 0 e a subsolicitação B tem location.index 1. Se a matriz requests for [A, B], batchUpdate será
bem-sucedida. Se a matriz for [B, A], batchUpdate vai falhar, já que location.index
1 não é válido, a menos que o formulário já contenha um item no índice 0.
