How to send automatically, auto generated google form Link/URL-CodePudding

using google apps script i wrote some code that will auto generate google form and a spreadsheet linked to the form to collect responses. also using triggers in apps script i set this script to auto generate a form every week. Everything is working as expected.

Instead of opening the form and using 'send' button to send the link/url as e-mail, i want the url of this auto generated form to be sent to a specific email automatically, as soon as it gets generated. searched a lot couldn't find any leads so far. Is this even possible, if so please do help in finding the solution. TIA.

I believe your goal is as follows.

You want to create a new Google Form and retrieve the published link of the created Google Form. And, you want to send it as an email.
You want to achieve this using Google Apps Script.

In this case, how about the following sample script?

Sample script:

function myFunction() {
  const form = FormApp.create("sample form"); // Create a new Google Form.
  
  // Retrieve published URL.
  const url = form.getPublishedUrl();
  
  // Send the URL as an email.
  MailApp.sendEmail({
    to: "###", // Please set the email address.
    subject: "sample subject",
    body: url
  });
}

When this sample script is run, a new Google Form is created and the published URL is sent as an email.
This is a simple sample script. So, please modify this for your actual situation.
