It can be a link with answers already filled in, or a browser tool that fills in your saved details. Which one you need depends on whether you made the form or you are filling it out. If you made the form, use the link. If someone sent you the form, use the tool. This guide covers both, plus the scripts people use to submit forms automatically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cdiv class=\"tldr\">\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>Quick answer\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cul>\n\u003Cli>\u003Cstrong>You made the form:\u003C\u002Fstrong> use the built-in \u003Cstrong>Pre-fill form\u003C\u002Fstrong> option.

You may already know the person's name, email, or booking reference, so you put those details in the link and they only fill in what you do not know. Google Forms does this with a pre-filled link, and that is usually what people mean when they search for a Google Forms auto filler.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you are filling out someone else's form, auto filling means a browser extension that stores your details once and types them into forms for you. That saves you from entering your name and email again and again. The extension can only fill details it already knows, so it cannot answer the form's actual questions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Read the section that matches your situation. The bot question near the end applies to both.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>How to send a Google Form with answers already filled in\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>Pre-filling saves people from typing information you already have. It also helps keep those answers consistent. Google Forms has this built in, so you do not need to install anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Col class=\"steps\">\n\u003Cli>\n\u003Ch3>Open the form in the editor\u003C\u002Fh3>\n\u003Cp>Go to forms.google.com and open the form you want to send. You need edit access, not just the link people use to submit responses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003Cli>\n\u003Ch3>Choose Pre-fill form\u003C\u002Fh3>\n\u003Cp>Click the three-dot \u003Cstrong>More\u003C\u002Fstrong> menu in the top right and select \u003Cstrong>Pre-fill form\u003C\u002Fstrong>.

The link only sets a starting value. It does not lock the field.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003C\u002Fdiv>\n\n\u003Ch2>How do the entry IDs in a pre-filled link work?\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>Open the link you copied and look at the end of the URL. Google adds something like this:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\u003Ccode>?usp=pp_url&entry.1234567890=Priya+Sharma&entry.987654321=Marketing\u003C\u002Fcode>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each \u003Ccode>entry.\u003C\u002Fcode> number is the ID for a question. The text after the equals sign is the answer. The ID stays the same as long as the question exists, so you can change the answers by hand without opening the form editor again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Spaces become a plus sign or \u003Ccode>%20\u003C\u002Fcode>. Other special characters need URL encoding. Otherwise, the answer may not show up correctly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch3>Make one link per person from a Google Sheet\u003C\u002Fh3>\n\n\u003Cp>Creating a link for each person gets tedious pretty quickly. If their details are already in a spreadsheet, you can create the links with a formula.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Col>\n\u003Cli>Generate one pre-filled link the normal way and paste it into a cell. Note which entry number belongs to each column.\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003Cli>In a new column, build the link with a formula. With the base URL in A1 and the person's name and team in B2 and C2, use: \u003Ccode>=A1&\"?usp=pp_url&entry.1234567890=\"&ENCODEURL(B2)&\"&entry.987654321=\"&ENCODEURL(C2)\u003C\u002Fcode>\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003Cli>Drag the formula down. Each row gets its own link, and ENCODEURL handles spaces and symbols for you.\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003C\u002Fol>\n\u003Cp>This is the closest thing Google Forms has to a mail merge. It works, but watch the entry numbers. One wrong digit can send a value to the wrong field.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Which extensions auto-fill Google Forms for you?\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>If you fill out Google Forms that other people send you, a pre-fill link does not help because you do not control the form. A browser extension can fill in details you saved once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Google Forms Auto Filler, on the Chrome Web Store, matches saved details such as your name and email to fields on a Google Form. QuickFill is an open-source extension on GitHub. You save a profile once, then click to fill. If it guesses a field wrong, you can undo it. QuickFill is installed through Chrome's developer mode instead of the Web Store, so setup takes a few extra steps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both extensions fill in details you saved. If an extension does not recognize a question, it leaves it empty.

A script written in Apps Script, Python, or a browser automation tool can open a Google Form and submit it with the values you give it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The problem is that scripts depend on the form's questions or positions. If the form changes, the script can break. And using a script to submit responses to a form you do not own is against Google's terms of service. The form owner can also report it as abuse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you want people's details filled in before they open the form, use a pre-filled link. If you already have their details in a spreadsheet, you can also add them directly to the linked response sheet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Ch2>Where Google's pre-fill stops\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>A pre-filled link works when you already know the answers. It cannot look up or decide anything when the form opens.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cul>\n\u003Cli>It fills fixed values only. The link cannot look anything up when it opens, so it cannot pull today's booking from your calendar or a respondent's current plan from your CRM.\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003Cli>Entry IDs are copied by hand. There is no field name to type; you get the number by creating a pre-filled link and reading the URL.\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003Cli>Deleting a question and adding it back gives it a new ID. Any old link that uses the old ID leaves that field blank.\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003Cli>There are no rules. You cannot fill the department from the email domain or skip a section because a value was pre-filled.\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003Cli>File upload questions cannot be pre-filled.\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003C\u002Ful>\n\n\u003Ch2>Where Formester fits\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\u003Cp>Formester covers these gaps.

In our discussion, we will share the numerous touchpoints you need to know for [building your first form with Formester](\u002Fblog\u002Fbuilding-your-first-form-with-formester\u002F 'Build your first form with Formester') .\n\n### Step 1: Determine Your Data Collection Requirements\n\nFind out your objectives with the form or survey. What do you need to ask your users? What are the different types of data you aim to collect? Conceptualize your form design and form fields. Also, figure out if you want a standalone form to share via links or integrate it into your website as per your application requirements.\n\nRemember to keep it short, simple, and effective. Put yourself in the user’s or respondent’s shoes - think about why you would want to fill out this form or answer this survey, and optimize for a delightful user experience.\n\n### Step 2: Sign Up and Begin With the Form Heading\n\nIf you don’t have an account already - sign up to [Formester: Easy HTML form builder](\u002F 'Formester') and create your first form.\n\nBefore you structure your form, you need to give it a suitable form name and enter a few details:\n\n- **Redirect URL:** The site address where you want the respondents to land up after submitting your form.\n\n- **Email notifications:** The email addresses that you want to use for receiving submission notifications.\n\n- **Type of service:** Choose drag and drop to create your forms unless you’re just looking for backend services only and have your online form in place.\n\n![Form accepting details like form name, redirection url for creating your new form](https:\u002F\u002Fformester-strapi.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com\u002Fhow_to_create_a_form_form_details_9ade2bc82b.png 'Form accepting details like form name, redirection url for creating your new form')\n\n## Step 3: Choose Form Fields and Add Them to Your Form\n\nOnce you create a form and enter the form name along with other primary details – it’s now time to build exactly what your audience would be interacting with. Choose from a huge variety of form fields as per your requirements and objective with the form or survey.\n\nFor example - for building a lead generation form, you would need basic client details like their name, email address, contact details, business requirements, the industry they operate in, and more. Subsequently, you can choose from different form fields in terms of the type of data (text, multiple-choice, numerical, URL, email address, date, rating etc).\n\n![Form builder being used for quickly creating intake form with name, email and phone number fields](https:\u002F\u002Fformester-strapi.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com\u002Fhow_to_create_a_form_choose_form_fields_1ca3aee7eb.png 'Form builder being used for quickly creating intake form with name, email and phone number fields')\n\n## Step 4: Set up Each Form Field\n\nFormester’s no-code drag and drop form builder is not only comprehensive and simple to use, but also allows you to set up your form design as you like it to be.

Note that you can either share the link to your standalone form or embed the form to your website. Choose among the available options and move forward with sharing and promoting the form proactively.\n\n![The form is published and the URL is copied](https:\u002F\u002Fformester-strapi.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com\u002Fhow_to_create_a_form_publishing_form_after_creation_d32679ae23.png 'The form is published and the URL is copied')\n\n## Summing Up\n\nFormester is a one-stop solution for building forms using an extensively easy, no-code interface.
