There are different ways you can view a document made in Google Apps
- docs.google.com/spreadsheet/pub
- docs.google.com/a/domain.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=FORMID
- docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=FORMID
- Embed on domain of application
Where 2 redirects to 3. Option 1 is most likely what you want users to see.
Option 1 is found via File > Publish to Web. Here you should see the choice to let users sign in with their domain.com account. This is greyed out but we will deal with this a little later on Thus if I am no signed with a domain.com I will get the request page. You will need to go to Form > Edit Form and change the sign-in option to view the form (not the spreadsheet). Now depending on your visibility settings you may get a pop-up asking whether the form should be seen outside of domain.com.
If you wanted Option 4, don't deselect this option. You will need to get this on the domain itself so for example domain.com/form.html. Using a Google sites for example https://sites.google.com/a/domain.com/test/ to handle the form will not work.
If you selected the uncheck the sign-in to view form, Option 3 should now work.
To get Option 1 working the admin of the Apps account needs to go in the Dashboard settings and manually enable it. Note changes will take a while to propagate, be patient with this change in the dashboard
You'll need to create pages in your Google Form as well as relevant multiple choice questions to take you between these pages.
For each page you set up, they will correspond with a multiple choice selection.
Add a question type of multiple choice
- You will see "Go to page based on answer" appear as a checkbox next to it. Click that.
The following warning appears:
Note: "go to page" questions work only on forms with multiple pages. Choose "page break" from the Add Item menu to add additional pages.
For each of the answer choices you'll see a "Continue to next page" drop down selection.
- What they select here will determine if they skip a page and move right onto the next relevant section or continue as part of the normal flow.
To skip pages, look at the bottom of each page break section for the After page X: Continue to next page selection.
- Choose accordingly and you can have the respondent not have to go through questions only those that selected a certain answer previously needed to.
Here's an example of what you might set up:
+ Bowel movements
|
| X : Y : Z
|
+ Night terrors
|
| {Y & Z answers from Bowel movements; Continue on to A Brunch to Remember}
|
+ Morning regrets
|
| {Only show to X answers from Bowel movements}
|
+ A Brunch to Remember
|
|
If you selected X in the Bowel Movements section, you jump straight to Morning Regrets. Other answers will continue on to Night Terrors. Those that fill out Night Terrors do not need to answer any from the Morning Regrets page and will then continue on to A Brunch to Remember.

i know this is an old post but this answer is for anyone else looking for the same solution to a similar problem quite recently.
Heres a simple workaround -
collate the correct data you want to display onto a new sheet - i.e. all your new responses - make your own histograms/ graphs / pivots or charts etc - save these all onto one single sheet & then simply publish that single read only anylitical data sheet to the web & share that link with your participants.
lets say for example you want to share the form responses data or you have made your own analytical summary charts & pivots & graphs based off that data you received on one particular sheet & you would like to share that analysis sheet publically
so for example i want to share just the form responses sheet with my particapiants, heres what i will do
on the main menue of the google sheet linked to the form responses
click on "file"
click on "publish to web"
You get two options - a public link which you can share - or the embed code
on the link section
click on the drop down & select "form responses 1"
Click on "Publish"
You will get a publically sharable weblink of just the form responses sheet that will auto update evry 5 minutes, like wise you can share any of the other sheets aswell not just the form responses sheet.
it basically converts any of the sheets you would like to publically share into a single 'read only' simple webpage.
be careful though - if you select "entire document" your whole google sheet will be shared with all its sheets publically visible to anyone with the link
On the second dropdown below " Published content & settings"
Select the same sheet name as you selected in the first drop down "form responses 1" or select any other sheets that you want to share aswell simentensously
click on "publish"
When you want to stop sharing your sheet or sheets just click "stop publishing"
