Google Form Responses in a Notification Email - forms

Question

I'm using the Form Notifications add-on in a Google Form. I've edited the Code.gs and CreatorNotification.html files and all works fine - when a Google Form is submitted I get an email. Now I'm trying to get some of the fields from that Form submission into the email. But with the edits I've added below, the email notification stops working.
In the Code.gs script I have:
function sendCreatorNotification() {
var form = FormApp.getActiveForm();
var settings = PropertiesService.getDocumentProperties();
var responseStep = settings.getProperty('responseStep');
responseStep = responseStep ? parseInt(responseStep) : 10;
function onFormSubmit(e) {
//Get information from form and set as variables
var First_Name = e.value[2];
// If the total number of form responses is an even multiple of the
// response step setting, send a notification email(s) to the form
// creator(s). For example, if the response step is 10, notifications
// will be sent when there are 10, 20, 30, etc. total form responses
// received.
if (form.getResponses().length % responseStep == 0) {
var addresses = settings.getProperty('creatorEmail').split(',');
if (MailApp.getRemainingDailyQuota() > addresses.length) {
var template = HtmlService.createTemplateFromFile('CreatorNotification');
template.summary = form.getSummaryUrl();
template.responses = form.getResponses().length;
template.title = form.getTitle();
template.responseStep = responseStep;
template.formUrl = form.getEditUrl();
template.notice = NOTICE;
template.firstname = First_Name;
var message = template.evaluate();
MailApp.sendEmail(settings.getProperty('creatorEmail'),
form.getTitle() + ': Case submission',
message.getContent(), {
name: ADDON_TITLE,
htmlBody: message.getContent()
});
}
}
}
}
In the CreatorNotification.html I have:
<p><i>Form Notifications</i> (a Google Forms add-on) has detected that the form
titled <b><?= title ?></b> has received
<?= responses ?> responses so far.</p>
<p>Summary of form responses</p>
<p>First Name:</p> <?= firstname ?>
Any direction would be appreciated.

You are trying to run two triggers. That "Add-on" code creates a trigger. The Add-on creates an "Installable" trigger. You already have one trigger set up for the form being submitted. The onFormSubmit(e) function is a "Simple" trigger. So, you have two triggers set up to run when a form is submitted. So, you created a conflict. If you look in the RESOURCES menu, under CURRENT PROJECT's TRIGGERS, you should see a trigger defined for the sendCreatorNotification() function.
Here's what you can try. You don't need a seperate onFormSubmit(e) simple trigger. The sendCreatorNotification() function, has the event object available to it. Just add e to the sendCreatorNotification() function:
sendCreatorNotification(e)
The write your code to get the value out of e.
