Google Forms MCP Server

The Google Forms MCP Server bridges the gap between conversational AI assistants and the Google Forms ecosystem. By exposing a lightweight set of tools that map directly to the Google Forms API, it allows Claude and other MCP‑compatible clients to programmatically create, modify, and read form data without leaving the chat interface. This eliminates the need for developers to write boilerplate OAuth flows or REST calls, enabling rapid prototyping of data collection workflows that can be triggered by natural language commands.

At its core, the server offers five intuitive tools: , , , , and . These actions cover the full lifecycle of a form—from initial creation to question insertion and finally retrieving submitted responses. Each tool abstracts away the underlying HTTP requests, handling authentication via a refresh token and returning clean JSON payloads that Claude can parse or display. For developers, this means they can embed form creation into a larger conversational flow—such as onboarding new users or gathering survey data—without worrying about API quotas or token refresh logic.

The MCP server’s value shines in scenarios where quick, on‑the‑fly data capture is essential. For example, a support chatbot can ask a user for feedback and immediately generate a personalized survey form that the user receives via email. In research environments, an assistant can help experimenters set up questionnaires for participants and then aggregate the responses directly into a shared database. Because the server operates over standard MCP protocols, it integrates seamlessly with any toolchain that supports Claude’s “tool‑calling” feature, allowing developers to compose complex sequences of actions across multiple services.

Unique advantages include its lightweight deployment—requiring only a Node.js runtime—and the fact that it handles OAuth 2.0 for you through a pre‑generated refresh token. This removes the friction of managing credentials in production, while still maintaining security by keeping secrets out of source control. Additionally, the server’s clear separation of concerns (form creation vs. response retrieval) makes it easy to extend with new question types or additional Google Workspace APIs in the future. Overall, the Google Forms MCP Server empowers developers to turn conversational prompts into functional data collection workflows with minimal effort.
