Challenges and Solutions

Challenges faced

Andrew (name changed), a Form Director user, reached out with the following question:

"We use Form Director with a Google Form, but we need to change the 'sent from' email address. Currently, emails are being sent from the account that owns or created the form, but we want them to come from a different email address. How can we change this?"

Proposed Solution

For Andrew's question, By default Form Director sends emails from the account that owns the form. While this setting cannot be directly modified, there are two effective workarounds:

1. Transfer Ownership & Reconfigure Form Director

   • Transfer ownership of the Google Form, the destination sheet, and any related documents to the new email account.

   • Disable Form Director on the original form (configured with the old email).

   • Re-enable and configure Form Director on the transferred form using the new email account.

   • For detailed steps, visit: Switch Form Director Services.

2. Use a Custom Email Provider

   • Configure a custom email provider within Form Director to send emails from the desired email address.

   • The provider will require email verification before allowing emails to be sent from that address.

   • For setup instructions, visit: Custom Email Providers.

These solutions provide flexibility, allowing users to control the sender email while maintaining seamless automation with Form Director. 🚀
