Google Forms and Google Calendar are each convenient tools. However, for those using Google Forms as a reservation form, for example, you might find it cumbersome to manually enter the responded dates into Google Calendar.
This article introduces a method to create events in Google Calendar based on responses submitted to Google Forms. With this integration, events are automatically added to the calendar the moment a response is submitted, saving you the hassle of manually entering schedules and thus saving time. Additionally, it helps prevent errors from manual entry, allowing for accurate schedule management at all times.
Benefits of Integrating Google Forms and Google Calendar
First, let's look at the benefits of integrating Google Forms with Google Calendar.
Time Savings and Improved Work Efficiency
By integrating Google Forms with Google Calendar, schedule management is automated, eliminating the need for manual schedule entry. This significantly saves the time spent on entering and managing schedules, thereby improving the overall efficiency of your work. The time saved can be used to focus on other important tasks, further enhancing overall work efficiency.
Prevention of Input Errors and Accurate Schedule Reflection
When schedules are entered manually, date entry errors can often occur. However, by automating schedule creation from Google Forms, such errors can be prevented. Moreover, schedule changes are quickly reflected in the calendar, allowing you to always check your schedule with the latest information. This reduces the risk of double bookings and enables reliable schedule management.

After working as a general store manager, I started working from home as an SEO writer. Later, an outsourcing agreement was signed with a marketing startup for about 5 years.
Surrounded by students at the University of Tokyo, I held a computer and spent my days studying various business terms and how to use SaaS tools.
When I was a general store manager, time was taken over and over again by office work such as sales and inventory management, human resource management, and ordering, etc., and I was unable to serve customers and often missed sales times. Even when outsourcing, there are many detailed tasks such as input, etc., and “can't such monotonous tasks be automated?” I thought so, and I really sympathize with Yoom's vision!
Conventional RPA can only automate simple repetitive tasks, and the setup process was very complicated. With “hyperautomation,” which combines various technologies such as AI, API, RPA, and OCR, it is possible to automate many tasks that could not be realized until now more easily than before.
Most tools simply connect one app to another, leaving the complex tasks to you. Yoom goes much further: From document creation and browser automation to OCR and generative AI, Yoom handles it all seamlessly in one platform.
Why settle for basic integrations? Streamline your entire workflow with Yoom’s powerful hyperautomation.
