Shorten a Google Form Link — Paste, Share, Track Opens

Google Forms no longer integrates with Google URL Shortener

Many people still search for Google Forms Google URL Shortener integration or how to connect Forms to goo.gl. Google discontinued the public Google URL Shortener (goo.gl), so Forms no longer offers a built-in short link from that tool. URLShort is a free goo.gl-style replacement: paste your Form share URL on urlshort.at and get a short HTTPS link you control—with click analytics and no Google account required for shortening.

How to shorten a Google Form link (step by step)

In Google Forms, open Send → link icon, then copy the HTTPS form URL. Paste it into URLShort on urlshort.at and click Shorten. Respondents who open your short link land on the same form. Optional: set a custom alias like urlshort.at/rsvp-2026 so slides and posters stay readable.

Classroom, events, and slides

Put urlshort.at/your-event on slides instead of a 120-character Google URL. Pair with a QR code so in-room audiences can open the form without typing. See also /for/google-docs and /for/google-drive.

Permissions stay with Google

Shortening does not change who can submit. Restrict or open the form in Google's settings as usual. URLShort only redirects; form responses stay in your Google account.

Track opens vs responses

Use URLShort click analytics as a top-of-funnel signal (who opened the short link). Actual submissions still appear in Google Forms. Separate short codes per class or channel if you need cleaner attribution.

FAQ

How do I shorten a Google Form link for free?
Copy the form’s share URL from Google Forms → Send → link, paste it on urlshort.at, and click Shorten. No account required.
Can I still use Google URL Shortener with Google Forms?
No. Google shut down goo.gl for new links. Use URLShort at urlshort.at as a free Google URL Shortener alternative for Forms, Docs, and Drive share URLs.
Is there a Google Forms to Google URL Shortener integration?
Not anymore. Create the Form in Google, copy the share link, then shorten it with URLShort—the same outcome as the old integration, with better click analytics.
Can I shorten Google Docs the same way?
Yes—any HTTPS Google share link (Docs, Sheets, Forms) can be shortened.
Can I edit the form after shortening?
Yes. The same short link keeps working; you edit the Form in Google, not the redirect, unless you change the destination.

URLShort tracks link clicks; form responses stay in Google. Use both together for funnel insight.
