Just FYI -  
This is what I use for getting notifications on form submissions. Not perfect for everyone, but I just want a simple email notification.

[https://gsuite.google.com/marketplace/app/magic\_cell\_notifications/886834937346](https://gsuite.google.com/marketplace/app/magic_cell_notifications/886834937346)

I just set it up so that I get an email when a certain column has new data.

I also use it for getting notified when a new user signs in (or an old user on a new device.

I just use it VERY basically to get an email. I have not really delved deep into what it can do.

The magic cell notification was very useful in setting up notifications. Provides lot of variations to the notification. One issue is that the google sheet gets attached with every notification. If this could be avoided it would be good.
