Form

HTML CODE:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
    <title>Contact Form</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
</head>
<body>
    <div class="container">
    <form method="POST" name="google-sheet">
        <h3>GET IN TOUCH</h3>
    <input type="text" id="name" name="Name" placeholder="Enter your Name:"required>
    <input type="email" id="name" name="Email" placeholder="Enter your Email:"required>
    <input type="text" id="phone" name="Mobile" placeholder="Enter your Phone No:"required>
    <button type="submit">Send</button>
   </form>
</div>

     <script>
      const scriptURL = 'https://script.google.com/macros/s/AKfycbw8RLTt0prHFUua5r_RhLRKmDKBbjD9q25Xxl4O3Go-B3j9T1kgmAVPciiyr9Mg3ovXQw/exec'
      const form = document.forms['google-sheet']
    
      form.addEventListener('submit', e => {
        e.preventDefault()
        fetch(scriptURL, { method: 'POST', body: new FormData(form)})
          .then(response => alert("Thanks! for Using our Form"))
          .catch(error => console.error('Error!', error.message))
      })
    </script>

</body>
</html>

CSS CODE:

*{
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
  font-family: sans-serif;
  box-sizing: border-box;
}
.container{
width: 100%;
height: 100vh;
background-color: #001660;
display: flex;
align-items: center;
justify-content: center;
}
form{
  background: #fff;
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: column;
  padding: 2vw 4vw;
  width: 90%;
  max-width: 600px;
  border-radius: 10px;
}
form h3{
color: #555;
font-weight: 800;
margin-bottom: 20px;
}
form input,form textarea{
  border: 0;
  margin: 10px 0;
  padding: 20px;
  outline: none;
  background: #f5f5f5;
  font-size: 16px;
}
form button{
  padding: 15px;
  color: #ff5361;
  color: #fff;
  font-size: 18px;
  border: 0;
  outline: none;
  width: 150px;
}
form button{
  padding: 15px;
  background: #ff5361;
  color: #fff;
  font-size: 18px;
  border: 0;
  outline: none;
  cursor: pointer;
  width: 150px;
  margin: 20px auto 0;
  border-radius: 30px;
}

Now, After you Have Created a Basic Form Structure, Then We Need to Create a Blank Sheet In Google Sheets & Add Name, Email, & Mobile No Cell to the Sheet.

Add the Following JavaScript Code To Make the Form Working:

JavaScript Code:

<script>
      const scriptURL = 'Enter Google Form Script URL'
      const form = document.forms['google-sheet']
    
      form.addEventListener('submit', e => {
        e.preventDefault()
        fetch(scriptURL, { method: 'POST', body: new FormData(form)})
          .then(response => alert("Thanks! for Using our Form"))
          .catch(error => console.error('Error!', error.message))
      })
    </script>

After That Go to The Extensions>Script Editor & After You are in the Script Editor Delete All the Code & Paste the Following Code in It:

image
var sheetName = 'Sheet1'
		var scriptProp = PropertiesService.getScriptProperties()

		function intialSetup () {
		  var activeSpreadsheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet()
		  scriptProp.setProperty('key', activeSpreadsheet.getId())
		}

		function doPost (e) {
		  var lock = LockService.getScriptLock()
		  lock.tryLock(10000)

		  try {
			var doc = SpreadsheetApp.openById(scriptProp.getProperty('key'))
			var sheet = doc.getSheetByName(sheetName)

			var headers = sheet.getRange(1, 1, 1, sheet.getLastColumn()).getValues()[0]
			var nextRow = sheet.getLastRow() + 1

			var newRow = headers.map(function(header) {
			  return header === 'timestamp' ? new Date() : e.parameter[header]
			})

			sheet.getRange(nextRow, 1, 1, newRow.length).setValues([newRow])

			return ContentService
			  .createTextOutput(JSON.stringify({ 'result': 'success', 'row': nextRow }))
			  .setMimeType(ContentService.MimeType.JSON)
		  }

		  catch (e) {
			return ContentService
			  .createTextOutput(JSON.stringify({ 'result': 'error', 'error': e }))
			  .setMimeType(ContentService.MimeType.JSON)
		  }

		  finally {
			lock.releaseLock()
		  }
		}

Copy the Following Code & Deploy>New Deployment And Click On Settings And Set it To Web App.

And Deploy the Project, After Deploying Add Some Data to the Form and You Will See that Data Has Been Added to the Sheet.
