Benefits and Examples of Integrating Google Sheets with Loops

Benefit 1: Improved Business Efficiency and Automated Email Sending

By automatically sending transactional emails with Loops based on row updates in Google Sheets, you can eliminate the need for manual email creation and sending tasks, allowing you to focus more time on other important tasks.

For example, it is useful for notifying business partners of inventory management updates or sending order confirmation emails to customers. Especially in operations where frequent data changes occur, significant reductions in work time can be expected. It is also suitable for automating routine tasks such as regular reminders or follow-up emails. It is effective in alleviating manpower shortages and preventing the omission of important emails.

Benefit 2: Maintaining Email Content Quality and Preventing Human Error

By using templated email sending, it becomes easier to maintain consistency in email content.

For example, in messages containing important information such as billing details or delivery confirmations, the risk of typos or omissions can be reduced. Even when multiple personnel are involved, the uniformity of the sent content can lead to increased corporate reliability.
Furthermore, in notifications requiring legal compliance or customer communications where brand image must be preserved, delivering a unified message can enable reassuring communication.

Benefit 3: Rapid Information Sharing and Improved Customer Response

By sending emails using Loops in response to row updates in Google Sheets, rapid information sharing becomes possible.

For example, immediately notifying stakeholders of project progress or promptly responding to customer inquiries can help enhance service quality. Such speedy responses can ultimately contribute to improved customer satisfaction and smooth communication within the team.
Additionally, in situations requiring urgent responses or support tasks needing quick action, it can potentially improve the overall work efficiency of the team. Promoting information sharing through such automation also aids in ensuring business transparency and simplifying management tasks.

Now, let's explain how to use the no-code tool Yoom to "send transactional emails with Loops when a row is updated in Google Sheets."

[What is Yoom]

How to Send Emails with Loops Based on Content Added to Google Sheets

The flow of automatically sending transactional emails using Loops when a row is updated in Google Sheets can be achieved by obtaining row update information using the Google Sheets API and sending transactional emails through the API provided by Loops.
Generally, programming knowledge is required, but by using the no-code tool Yoom, it can be easily set up without programming knowledge.

The general flow is as follows:

Integrate Yoom with Google Sheets and Loops as My Apps
Copy the Template
Detailed Flow Settings
Turn ON the Trigger

If you are not using Yoom, please register for free here.

If you are already using Yoom, please log in.

Step 1: Connect Google Sheets and Loops with My Apps

First, let's connect the apps used in this flow with Yoom as My Apps.
After logging into Yoom, click "+ New Connection" from "My Apps" in the left menu.

When the app search window appears, search for each app name.

Connect Google Sheets with My Apps

※Before connecting Google Sheets with My Apps, prepare the sheet you will use.
If you prepare the sheet after the connection, information retrieval may not work properly. (There is no problem if you change the sheet content later.)

Connecting Google Sheets requires logging in with a Google account.

When you search for Google Sheets in "New Connection," click "Sign in with Google" as shown in the image above.
Then, select your Google account and proceed to the "Log in to Yoom" screen, and click "Next."

Proceed to the next step, and when the screen asking Yoom for access to your Google account appears, click "Continue."

Clicking "Continue" will automatically return you to the My Apps list page in Yoom, completing the connection.

Connect Loops with My Apps

Connecting Loops with My Apps requires an access token.
After logging into your My Page, proceed to the API issuance screen from the settings.

Then click "Generate Key" to obtain the API Keys (access token) and paste it into the Yoom screen.

Once the My Apps connection is complete, it will be displayed in the list.

This completes the My Apps connection settings.
Next, we will move on to setting up the specific flow, so click "Try it" from the banner below to copy the template.

Step 2: Set Up App Trigger in Google Sheets

The initial setting is "When a row is updated".
This setting triggers the flow when a row in the specified Google Sheets is updated.

On the first page, the account information of the Google Sheets linked with My App is reflected.

Please check the account information, make any necessary title corrections, and proceed to the next step.

On the next page, set the app trigger interval.
It checks for updates in the rows of Google Sheets at specified intervals.

*Note that the trigger interval may not be selectable depending on the plan.

Spreadsheet ID: Select the ID (sheet name) of the Google Sheets to be used from the options
Sheet ID: Select the tab name to be used from the options
Column with unique values: Specify a column where the values entered in each row do not duplicate (Column A = Customer No)
Column to detect updates: Specify the column that will trigger the flow

In this article, we specify column D (Last Name) as the column to detect updates for clarity.

Once all required fields are filled, click "Test".

If the test is successful, the information from Google Sheets can be obtained as output.

This value varies depending on the content of the row. Once confirmed, click "Save" to complete the app trigger setup.

Step 3: Set Up for Sending Transaction Emails with Loops

The next setting is "Send Transaction Email".
This setting is for sending transaction emails with Loops based on the information obtained from Google Sheets.

On the first page, as with Google Sheets, make any necessary title corrections and check the account information before proceeding.

On the next page, set the information to be reflected in Loops.

Reflect the values from the output in each field.
Once all fields are filled, click "Test" to check if the transaction email is sent from Loops.

If the email is successfully sent, click "Save" to complete all settings.
Finally, turn on the trigger to activate the flow.

Now, when a row in Google Sheets is updated, a transaction email will be automatically sent from Loops.

The flow set up this time is as follows.
