Google-forms – Finding old Google Forms edit links

google-forms

How do I find old Google Forms edit links for which I don't have the direct URL any more?

I have submitted a few forms recently where I didn't bother to take note of the edit URL. Now I want to check what I wrote on those forms, so I was wondering if there might be a list of forms that I have submitted somewhere.

I have tried looking in the obvious places (Google Drive, Gmail and Google Forms itself) but so far come up short. Does anyone know if this is possible, and if so, how to do it?

Since I'm not the creator of these forms, answers on this question are no help to me.

If you still have edit access to the forms they could be found using Google Drive. When they are edited recently, the easier way could be the Recent view. You could found them using the Shared with me view and by searching.

Also you could check the activity panel, look at the Trash and search for orphan files (files without a folder). For details see Find or recover a file

Another way to find the forms edit links, as well as any other web page links, is to check your browser history.

The short answer is: You can't do that using Google's form builder.

The longer answer is that you can copy the form's HTML code and host it on your own website. That HTML code may then be modified to have the button display any text you'd like.
Copying and hosting the HTML code does have its drawbacks. If you edit the form from Google's form builder, the copied HTML code will of course not be updated, so you'd have to copy and mofiy it again.

See this article from ohdoylerules.com for how to copy and host the HTML code. Note that in this article, they are using Google Drive to host their customised HTML. That feature is not available in new Google Drive, so you will have to host your HTML somewhere else.

I have created a demo form here: http://vvv.vidarramdal.com/stackoverflow/webapps-66392/

I have searched the online lots for the answer to my question and several 
times the setText('text button') function has been mentioned. From what I can 
see this only applies to the these more complex customised forms. If that's 
not correct ...

No, you are correct.
