Typeform Skill Assessment

We wrote an article on Typeform’s Engineering blog about a way to crate amazing charts from Typeform’s response automatically.

Description

We had a client who needed spider charts within a report for their automation project. We tried different options like Google Sheets, Looker, and Docmaker, but none of them quite met the aesthetic standards we were aiming for. That’s when we stumbled upon Quickchart.io, and it turned out to be the missing piece of the puzzle.

Here’s the breakdown: I used Typeform to collect responses, Google Sheets for data management, and Quickchart.io for the chart creation.

To achieve the desired look, I created a background image using Figma and a Google Docs template to display the final result. By replacing variables and aligning the graph with the background image via Make, I was able to create visually stunning reports.

You can test how it works for yourself by filling in this dummy version of the Typeform.

📖 If you’re curious about the entire workflow head over to the full tutorial post here on the Typeform Developer blog.

I explain there:

• How to create the typeform
• Calculating average scores for each assessment using Google Sheets
• Generating the graph with Quickchart.io
• Automatically inserting the graph into a Google Docs template via Make
• Sending the generated report automatically via email to the respondent
