When to use it
Use this capability when you need “Get one response” without doing the same work manually in the Google Forms interface. It runs only when an AI client calls it.
What to provide
form_id— required. The form id — the long id from the form URL (docs.google.com/forms/d/<formId>/edit) or from create_form output.response_id— required. The response id from list_responses.
What it returns
Returns compact JSON from the upstream API or a clear MCP tool error. The exact fields depend on the operation and are documented in the technical reference.
What changes in Google Forms
The tool reads Google Forms data and does not change it.
Example request
Get one response in Google Forms. Ask for any required identifiers that are missing.
Errors and limitations
Map questionId to the question text via get_form.
Access also depends on token permissions, quotas, and upstream API limits.
