How To Integrate Google Sheet With Any App

Google Sheets is a powerful cloud-based spreadsheet application that can be even more powerful when integrated with other applications. This allows you to automate tasks, streamline your workflows, and get a more complete view of your data.

Wiresk is a workflow automation platform that makes it easy to connect Google Sheets to any application that has an API. This includes CRM systems, project management tools, and customer support software.

It is important before using Google Account as a listener to get a connection to it.

To do so, please follow these steps:

Click on “Create a Connection”

Choose a name for your connection.
Select the Google platform

First of all, select the app need.
Don’t forget to name your connection, otherwise, the authorization will remain grayed out.

  1. Then, click on “Authorize”
  2. Choose the Google Sheet account
  3. Then, click on “Continue”

Then click on accept

Then go to Flow Tab and Click on Create Flow

Define your Flow Name and assign to your Group

Select your Google Sheet Trigger

Then set up the triggers

In Bold Mandatory Field

  1. Name of the Scheduler
  2. Select the Google Connection (The Connection we setup together, watch above)
  3. Define your timeout (is used to define when the scheduler restarts, and is useful on tasks with many requests, allowing the flow to be restarted without being blocked.)
  4. Then Schedule your reccurence rule (A recurrence rule for a scheduler is a set of rules that define how often a task should be repeated. It can be used to schedule tasks that need to be done on a regular basis, such as sending out a weekly newsletter or running a daily backup.)
    • Frequency: How often the task should be repeated. This can be daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly.
    • Interval: The number of times the frequency should occur before the task is repeated. For example, a weekly task with an interval of 2 would be repeated every other week.
    • Start and end dates: The dates on which the task should start and end repeating.
  5. Than click on Parameters
  6. WARNING:
    To set up your Google Root Account (Root = _ ), specify the root variable as the account name. Then, choose the name of the Spreadsheet and the Sheet you want to use. Additionally, indicate whether you wish to retain any existing data.
  7. To find the Spreadsheet ID and Worksheet ID, you can follow these steps:
  8. Open the Google Sheets document.
  9. Look at the URL in the address bar of your browser.
  10. Find the part of the URL that comes after “/d/” and before “/edit”. This is the Spreadsheet ID. [1]
  11. To find the Worksheet ID, you need to look for the number that appears after “gid=” in the URL. For example, in the URL you provided, the Worksheet ID is “0”. [2]
  12. Please note that the Spreadsheet ID and Worksheet ID can be used to reference specific documents and sheets within Google Sheets.
