Issue linking Google spreadsheet to Google Survey forms - spreadsheet

I have a google survey form that has no responses, I have responses in a different spreadsheet, can I link it to the new survey form?
If I try to link the form with the spreadsheet I get 0 responses, but the spreadsheet has more than 10 responses which not showing up in the survey form.
Also from the form when I click and open the spreadsheet it shows responses but the Survey form is not taking the responses to build the survey report.

You may need to add the 'past' responses to the form manually (through the UI) or with program (Google Apps Script).

Google API to track document view and edits - google sheets

I maintain ~450 unique Google Sheets for all of the teachers in our school district (updated nightly using a python script). For auditing and reporting purposes I would like to track opens and edits of these Sheets.
I've found the Changes resource that should be able to help me identify edits, but that's only getting me halfway there. Is there any Drive API Resource out there that will identify page views (count, most recent) by user?
Track Google Drive document changes using the Reports API from the Admin SDK.
What you are trying to do can be achieved using the Reports API.You can have a list of all the file IDs and use the activities.list method and set the userKey parameter to "all" so that you get the activities from any user, or set a specific email address or user ID to get the information from a specific user only.
The applicationName parameter needs to be set to "drive" so that it recognizes that it is the Google Drives report the one you are accessing, and then for the filters parameter you can use for example "doc_id==12345" (replace 12345 with the file ID) to get the activity report from a specific document.
An example:
Note: Be aware that this can only pull information from the last 6 months.

Filling records, sending a row as a PDF, sending the pdf to specific email addresses and storing the PDF in another table as an attachment

I have a workflow that I need to get done in Airtable:
The user fills a row in a table.
The row that gets filled is made into a pdf using page designer.
The designed page is sent as a pdf to some static email addresses.
The pdf also needs to be stored in another table as an attachment.
I did the first two parts. I’m having trouble doing the other two as I cannot figure out anything to do about it. I would be grateful if anyone helps. Thanks!
You can create the last two steps of your scenario using "automations."
when the PDF is saved into airtable, use the automation tool to send that attachment to the email provided using an IF statement.
You can then create a THEN statement for the automation to complete after each email has been sent.
You'll need a pro account if you want to send more than 100 emails per day I believe.
It seems that specialized software is better suited for your tasks, which allows you to generate PDF files from a row, send them to recipients, and save them in another table as an attachment.
I use Plumsail Documents for such purposes. This software allows you to generate documents with data from any system, sign them, send them by email and save them across any app. This software has many integrations, including Airtable. The good thing is that they have a free trial period of 30 days, with no credit card required. I recommend reading an article about comparing Airtable Page Designer and Plumsail Documents.
In short, you will need to follow a few steps:
Create a document template in Plumsail Documents processes to
generate documents with data from Airtable from this template;
Configure the delivery and storage parameters of the finished
document;
Connect Airtable to Plumsail Documents using Zapier or Power
Automate and configure data transport from Airtable to document
template;

Office365: Checklist and Workflow

We use Office365 and am looking to create a number of equipment inspection checklists where a user would go to a One-Drive link, open a checklist template, use the checklist during equipment inspection and make comments, then upon completion save the document with a machine generated name (apparatus and date-based) to a folder on One-Drive. In addition, if an item(s) on the checklist is out of spec, a separate email will be sent to a specified email address with info about the defect.
I have looked at MS Forms and it seems very clunky for this application as there are many items on the checklist. I could create it as an macro-automated Word document, but that seems a bit old-fashioned.
What is the right way to do this? Are there any examples of this that I could learn from? Thank you.
You should build this as a standard custom list in a SharePoint site. Each of your checklist items becomes a separate field in the list, and thus every New entry in the list is one complete checklist. I know this seems a little sideways since your checklist items are columns -- but the New Item form and Edit form present the fields for that item in a vertical fashion making it appear more like a check list that the user can interact with. This then gives you a table listing of everyone's checklist that you could filter and sort and even fire Power Automate Flows based on statuses. Once complete, you can use a Flow to generate a Word document or PDF document and save it in a library or OneDrive.
You can provide users with a hyperlink directly to that list's entry form (e.g. https://yourtenant.sharepoint.com/sites/checklistsite/lists/checklist/NewForm.aspx). If the default entry form does not meet your needs, you can always customize the list form with PowerApps.

Getting data from Google Spreadsheets

I quickly made a little form in Google Docs that lets people insert the most current attraction wait times at Disneyland and submit them to a Google Spreadsheet. I want to make a web page that will display the bottom, most recent row from that spreadsheet so the current wait time for each attraction is always displayed when someone visits the web page. Is there a possible way already to share and embed just the bottom row of data from the spreadsheet?
Hooray for google's api documentation section, although it's hard to sometimes find the right section... I've never done this before but it looks pretty straightforward

Hide a Column in Sharepoint 2010

I am trying to hide a column in SharePoint 2010 list based on Users.
When user submit a request the status column should be hidden and the value set as pending.
When Admin logged in he/she should able to edit the status.
Is there any way I can achieve this without writing CUSTOM CODE.
Any help would be appreciated.
There are several ways to archive this without programming. The easiest is to Create a new view for the list or use webpart to view the content for the other users.
If you don’t mind, you can try the third-part tools, such as BoostSolutions Column/View Permission, Infowise Smart List Pro.
They are all good tools and can hide columns based on the conditions.
