We have added a new Google Sheets trigger - Watch for cell change and send the row.
This trigger lets you keep track of all updates in the cells of your sheet. Trigger works on webhooks and sends events immediately when a cell is updated and a row is added.
You’ll need to make additional setup in your spreadsheet to use this trigger, but first, connect your Google Sheets account to Albato.
Connecting Google Sheets to Albato
How to set up spreadsheet
- Open your spreadsheet which you want to use in the integration.
- Go to the Extensions section → Apps Scripts.
- Remove the data from the Editor section and paste a code from this link.
- Copy the Albato webhook URL from your Google Sheets connection in the Apps section.
- Paste this webhook into the endpoint variable (line 14).
- Click the Save icon. Pick the “createSpreadsheetOpenTrigger” option and click the Run button.
