I am using google forms to survey the same patient each month.

Is there a way for me to create a different link to the patient's previous survey (and maintaining his/her answers) or to quickly copy and paste his/her answers into a different survey (to obtain a different link to the previous google forms survey, that I can paste and save?).

This would save me a lot of time lost filling out a new survey with the patient's past answers, every month that I have to contact the patient.

Use a prefilled link. To automatically create prefilled links, use a formula in the form response destination spreadsheet to insert the data in a patient's existing response into a link template.

To get a link template, follow the instructions in the help page. Use the text string concatenation operator & or functions like substitute() and regexreplace() to implement the formula.

  • Thanks so much Ruben! Do you know if it is possible to obtain different links instead of a single link out of a prefilled form, so I can use a different link each month?

    In the form response destination spreadsheet, use a formula to insert the data in a patient's existing response into a link template. If you cannot write a formula to do that, post a new question and show what the form response destination sheet look like.
