  3. Enter your login credentials.
  4. After your login has succeeded, the wizard will show the list of Folders (Collections) available. Sub-folders are not listed in the folder list.
  5. Select the collection you created earlier (Leave Approvals).
  6. Choose a name for the Submission Folder. This name should be unique for each submission. The best approach is to choose a combination of controls in the form that will generate a unique name. For example, if your form contains controls named EFulName and StartDate for employee's full name and start date of the leave, then choose: {EFullName}_{StartDate}.
  7. Click the Finish button.
  8. Your form is now configured to save submissions to your Google Apps account.
