Activate and/or deactivate your form based on a date and time, ideally for your quiz or exam

3) Email notifications

The user plus timestamp will be tracked for each attempt

This addon is the perfect companion for:

- …so all situations which require a form start/stop functionality

Don’t be afraid of overbooked events, this addon will open and close your form at the exact time and date.

6) NEW: Limit choices
Set different limits for your questions. As soon as all limits are reached, the question will display a final message e.g. “This question is no longer available”.

In addition, already limited questions can be restored and email notifications are available to inform users as soon as a question has been completely limited.

7) NEW: Limit responses
Set a response limit for your form. As soon as all limits are reached, the form will be closed and no more responses will be possible.


➤ ➤ ➤ ISSUES ➤ ➤ ➤ 

1) Only the "Help" menu item does show up
This issue can not be fixed by us. Just reload the page, then all menu items will show up.

2) The error message "drive.google.com refuses to connect" shows up within the sidebar
This issue can also not be fixed by us. The cause for this error message is that multiple users are logged in within the browser.
Solution 1:
Just log out with all users, except the one which should be used to work with the addon.
Solution 2:
Use a different browser or the incognito mode.

2) The sidebar is completely blank
Again, the cause for this error is outside the timer addon. The cause for this error message is that multiple users are logged in within the browser.
Solution 1:
Just log out with all users, except the one which should be used to work with the addon.
Solution 2:
Use a different browser or the incognito mode.

➤ ➤ ➤ WHO IS BEHIND ADDONFORGE? ➤ ➤ ➤ 

We met while working together at a top-tier online marketing agency in Vienna, the first full-stack Google partner in the DACH region: Google Marketing Platform Certified, Google Marketing Platform Sales Partner and Google Cloud Partner.

We gained experience in various areas like campaign management, digital analytics, Google SEO, and cloud & data science. We've worked with tools like Campaign Manager 360™, Display & Video 360™, Google Analytics™, Google Tag Manager™, Google Search Console™, Google Cloud Platform™, and more.

Since we're so familiar with the Google ecosystem, developing Google Workspace Marketplace™ add-ons seemed like a natural next step 😊
