Google Apps Script Survey Workflow

The components involved in this workflow are:

• A script to generate and send an email with an HTML form.
• An html template for that email, which allows us to customize the email for each recipient.
• A doPost() function to handle responses. The script must be [deployed as a Web App][1].
• A spreadsheet to collect responses. The script will be contained in the spreadsheet, and extends the spreadsheet UI with a menu for sending a copy of the survey. (It could be adapted for standalone use, without the UI component.)

Here is an example of such a workflow, conducting a Commuting Survey. Recipients will receive a survey email like this:

SheetConverter library (formerly "Spreadsheet to HTML")

This is the source repository for the SheetConverter Google Apps Script library.

Libary documentation is available here.

Caveats

This script is incomplete, ignoring some types of formatting. (Feel free to fork and enhance it, if you wish! Broadly applicable enhancements can be merged and the library updated) There are also some known issues:

            var cDivident = '';
            var cRest = '';

            for (var i in divident ) {
                var cChar = divident[i];
                var cOperator = cRest + '' + cDivident + '' + cChar;
