Overview
Turn new activity in Google Sheets into the starting point for your automations. Use the spreadsheets your team already works with to begin the next step in AXCRM.
What’s new?
Three new Google Sheets triggers let you start a workflow when a spreadsheet, row, or worksheet is created:
New spreadsheet: Start a workflow when a new Google Sheets file is created in the selected Drive.
New spreadsheet row: Start a workflow when a new row is appended after the last row of a selected sheet or tab.
New worksheet: Start a workflow when a new tab is added to a selected spreadsheet.
Why this matters
Teams often capture inquiries, project details, and reporting data in Google Sheets. Moving that work forward can mean checking for new entries and starting the next process manually. These triggers connect new activity in your sheets to your workflows, so the next step can begin automatically.
How it works
Go to Automation > Workflows, open a workflow, and select Add Trigger. Search for the trigger name or open the Google sheets category.
Choose the event: Select New spreadsheet, New spreadsheet row, or New worksheet based on what should start the workflow.
Select the source: Choose your connected Google account and Drive. For row and worksheet triggers, select the spreadsheet; for the row trigger, also select the Sheet (Tab).
Use the trigger data: Select Find new records, choose a mapping reference, and use the available data in following workflow actions.
Test the automation: Save the trigger and workflow, then use Test > Test using events to check a matching Google Sheets event. Publish the workflow when it is ready.
Common use cases
Start a lead intake workflow when a team appends a new inquiry to a sheet.
Begin a monthly reporting process when a new month tab is added to a reporting spreadsheet.
Kick off an internal process when a new spreadsheet is created in a selected Drive.
Additional notes
Google Sheets is marked as Premium in the workflow builder; premium usage charges may apply.
The row trigger tracks row positions. Append new records at the bottom: inserting rows in the middle can retrigger rows at the end, and deleting rows can cause subsequent new rows to be skipped.
