Appends Google Form question responses to the bottom of selected Google Docs™ .
Listing updated:April 10, 2024

Overview
Use a Google Form™  to select which Doc(s) to append from a list, multiple-choice, or checkbox Form question -- pre-populated with Doc titles from a folder in Drive™.

HOW IT WORKS
- Hooks up to a folder in Drive™, turning one of your form questions into a Doc picker -- including the ability to use checkboxes or a "Select all" question to append a single form response to multiple docs.
- Lets you choose which question responses to append -- e.g. leaving certain questions out can be a powerful way to keep "shared" and "private" feedback on the same doc separate.
- Can include Timestamp and Username as fields to include.
- Appends form responses in one of three ways: Bulleted list, separate vertical tables, or new rows in a single horizontal table.

IDEAS FOR USAGE
- Keep a Google Doc™ per student where you log a running record of observations around a particular skill, like reading or numeracy.
- Use for documenting teach inter-visitations, where each teacher gets a single running document of all visits to their classroom.
- Great for applying custom, Forms-based rubric assessments on student documents.  Integrates nicely with Google Classroom™ assignments -- just choose the folder that contains all student docs and get on with grading all "turned in" docs in your own way.
- Set up a single Doc per kid via autoCrat or Doctopus and then post daily or weekly "prompts" to the end of the doc via a Google Form™. 
- Great for peer review protocols on student Docs that you have editing rights on.  Give all students the link to your form and their peer assessments will all paste into the bottom of the selected student doc.

This app was fantastic, but has it stopped working? I can no longer add things and have it repopulate.

This app does not appear to work. EVER. I used to use it years ago and recommended it to my staff. It has not worked for them. It no longer works for me. It can't seem to see the files in the folder so it can not populate them to my drop down. Extremely frustrating as it used to be somewhat of a game changer for me. I would love to hear how this can be fixed? I have wasted literally hours and hours on this app.

When it works I LOVE IT and when it doesn't, I hate it... I cannot get doc appender to put my responses INTO the documents. It shows it's submitted but it doesn't appear in the docs. It worked last week and now it doesn't. I've tried everything to fix it but the folder it's attached to just constantly shows a broken image... so somewhere some link is broken. It's pretty frustrating as this is where most of my documentation for teaching resides. I hope they can fix it soon...

Made my life a lot easier. It's more useful and an asset than people think. I does exactly what it's supposed to do.

I am having the same issue as the other most recent reviewer - worked fine last week now won't append/populate in the connected doc - what's up? When will this be fixed? What is the problem? HELP! It was working up until yesterday morning - a colleague used it successfully in the AM and I could not by about 12 EST.

This is a great add-on, and thanks for providing it for free! A couple things I would like to see - 1) It would be nice if it would auto-populate the form drop-down question automatically instead of having to run the add-on setup again. (So if a doc is added to the folder it auto-populates instead of having to run the add-on again.) 2) Have the option of the documents being either docs or sheets. I know you still have the form responses in the main sheet and can use filters, etc... for viewing, but it would be nice at times to have the option of indivual sheets instead of docs. Thanks agian, a very useful add-on!

Love it. Very useful. You can use to create a portfolio where you keep adding questions rather than just feedback too.

Stopped working completely. I use this daily, so I need something reliable. Now I have to look for something else.

Not to pile on, but it is not working for me either... Interestingly enough though I do have a Form created in 2017 that uses Doc Appender and it still works....BUT no other ones do.....
