How to Submit a Hugo Form to Google Sheets

Add a working contact form to your Hugo site without any server-side code


Hugo generates blazing-fast static websites, but static sites can't process forms on their own. Form2Sheet bridges that gap - add a simple HTML form partial and submissions go directly to Google Sheets.

In this tutorial, I will guide you through the process of submitting a Hugo form to Google Sheets using Form2Sheet, making your data collection journey smooth and efficient.

Step 1: Prerequisites

The first step in integrating Form2Sheet is to subscribe either monthly or yearly.
Then, go to https://form2sheet.com and create your first spreadsheet.

Step 2: Building Your Hugo Form Partial

Create a Hugo partial template for your contact form. Save this file and include it in any page template. Make sure to replace the $API_URL with the one you received in your email (check your spam folder as well).

<!-- layouts/partials/contact-form.html -->
<form action="" method="">
  <label>Name:</label>
  <input type="text" name="" />
  <label>E-mail:</label>
  <input type="email" name="" />
  <label>Message:</label>
  <textarea name=""></textarea>
  <input type="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>

<!-- Usage in any template: -->
{{ partial "contact-form.html" . }}


Step 3: Submitting the Form

In the GIF below, you can see how after submitting the form you check the results in your Spreadsheet.

Besides that, you and the respondent will receive a confirmation email with the data submitted.

And that's is! Simple as that. Aditionally, you can create Unlimited Spreadsheets, customize the Thank You page, add as many Custom Form Fields as you want and remove the Form2Sheet branding from the emails.
