function doPost(e) {
    var jsonString = e.postData.getDataAsString();

    var sample = data.sample;
    var date = new Date();

    var ss = SpreadsheetApp.openById(SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getId());
    var sheet = ss.getSheetByName("シート1");

    sheet.appendRow([sample, date]);
}

(4)In the 5th sentence, there is a code「var sample = data.sample;」, so copy and paste elements set in (1).

(5)In pasted codes done in (4), change「varsample = data.sample;」those two「sample」to the variables you set in (1).
※Do the same procedure for the number of variables.

(6)There is a code like this in the last row,「sheet.appendRow([sample, date])」, change「sample」to the variables you set in (1). Add variables with「,」for the number of variables you have.
