Is there any feature Add New Field using jQuery or Add fields using Javascript in Google forms?

I'm creating a questionnaire application using google apps script and questions and answers will be set from my admin panel (admin decide how many questions will be there). It would be perfect if there was a (+) next to the form to automatically load another text box underneath the form.

I founded the perfect reason for this why it's unable to add dynamic fields with the Google Forms because Google Forms applications are totally bonded with the spread sheets

All the Forms having individual spreadsheets there.

So, it's impossible to generate dynamic fields in the Google forms because of strongly associated with the spreadsheet so.

This we can say the static relation between Google Forms and Spreadsheets.

I think you want to build a new page that can submit to a Google spreadsheet using Using jQuery with JSON and Google Spreadsheets Data API

Short answer

Yes you can create/edit a form programmatically by using the Forms Service Class Form

Note: At this time it's not possible to make changes to form / questions based on user input like making cascading dropdowns.
