Form Submissions: Sort Responses by Timestamp
You can sort responses easily by using a script. Just follow the steps below:
Sample Sheet: HERE
1. Open up the Google Spreadsheet where you are saving your responses and select Tools->Script Editor.
2. Copy and paste the following code in to the Script editor (this script assumes the sheet name is Form Responses 1).
For Descending:
function getSpreadSheet(){
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheet = ss.getSheetByName("Form Responses 1");
sheet.sort(1, false);
}
For Ascending:
function getSpreadSheet(){
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
var sheet = ss.getSheetByName("Form Responses 1");
sheet.sort(1);
}
3. Authorize the script to run by clicking on the "Play" button:
4. Set the Trigger. When someone opens the spreadsheet it will automatically sort itself.
Click on the trigger icon and select: No triggers set up. Click here to add one now.
Set the drop downs just like below. Save the Trigger, exit the Script Editor, and your done!
