How this automation works

Create a Ghost member automatically from a Google Forms submission. When a new response is submitted to the selected Google Form, this Applet adds a member to your Ghost site using the respondent's details. It's useful for turning Google Forms signups into Ghost members for newsletters, gated content, or community access.
