Connect MetaSurvey and Google Sheets

MetaSurvey's swipe-style surveys get people to the end, and the answers are most useful in a spreadsheet you can sort and chart. FlowMattic writes each completed MetaSurvey response into Google Sheets from your WordPress site, so product teams, researchers and customer success can read results together and act on the ones that need a reply.

When MetaSurvey fires Survey Completion, FlowMattic runs Add New Row in Google Sheets with the data from that event.

MetaSurvey and Google Sheets workflows you can build

Each one uses only triggers and actions the two integrations ship today, plus FlowMattic's own tools. Where the library has a ready-made template, import it instead of building from scratch.

Ready-made template

Save each completed MetaSurvey response as a row

Every finished survey becomes one row with each answer in its own column, ready to chart or share with the people who asked the questions.

Survey CompletionAdd New Row

View the template

Send each survey to its own tab

When you run several surveys, a Router reads the survey name and writes responses to that survey's tab, so a feedback survey and a quiz never share columns.

Survey CompletionRouterAdd New Row

Put unhappy responses on a follow-up list

A Filter passes only responses with a low rating, and they are added to a Follow-up tab for customer success to contact.

Survey CompletionFilterAdd New Row

Tag open-text answers by theme

An AI Agent reads the free-text answer and picks a theme such as pricing, support or bugs, saved in its own column so you can count themes without reading every reply.

Turn rating labels into numbers before saving

A Lookup Table maps answers such as Very happy or Unhappy to scores from 1 to 5, so the sheet can average results without a formula on every row.

Set up: each response as a row

At the end, every completed response to your MetaSurvey is written to your Google Sheet as one row.

Triggers and actions in this pair

A trigger starts a workflow. An action is something FlowMattic does in the app as a step.

Good to know

Only finished surveys trigger the workflow. People who stop halfway do not appear in the sheet.
The columns depend on your survey's questions, so the mapping above is an example. If you add a question later, add a column with Create Spreadsheet Column or by hand and map it.
Anonymous surveys may not include an email. Check the test response before you plan a follow-up list around it.

Why run this pair with FlowMattic

MetaSurvey and Google Sheets connect through FlowMattic on your own site, with no separate automation account in the middle and no charge per run.

Answers pass through your server

Survey responses go from MetaSurvey through your own WordPress site into the sheet, not through another company's automation account.

Big surveys cost the same

Runs are unlimited, so a survey sent to your whole customer list needs no bigger plan than one sent to ten people.

Feedback turns into follow-up

Low scores land on a list someone owns, so an unhappy customer gets a reply rather than becoming a number in a chart.

Common questions

How do I send MetaSurvey results to Google Sheets?

Create a workflow with the Survey Completion trigger, complete the survey once to capture the answers, then add Add New Row and map each answer to a column.

Can I keep several surveys in one spreadsheet?

Yes. Use a Router on the survey name, with each path writing to its own tab. Or build one workflow per survey if their questions differ a lot.

Can I flag negative feedback?

Yes. Add a Filter on the rating answer so only low scores continue, and write those to a Follow-up tab. The full results can still go to the main tab in another workflow.

What happens if I change the survey questions?

New questions arrive as new fields. Add a column for each, map it in the Add New Row step, and test again so existing columns still line up.
