Yoom is requesting additional access to your Google account. Press continue. When you move to the authentication screen, select Allow all permissions.

__wf_reserved_inherit

The screen will switch, and if the above display appears, the connection is complete.

■Prepare Google Sheets

Prepare the Google Sheets where you are managing the tasks you want to add.
As an example, it is set as follows, but you can set the item contents as you like.

__wf_reserved_inherit

■WordPress

__wf_reserved_inherit

__wf_reserved_inherit

WordPress is a convenient tool for creating and managing websites and blogs.
However, if you manage content information with Google Sheets, manually transferring information to create posts can be time-consuming and labor-intensive.

This not only reduces working time but also helps prevent transcription errors, omissions, and duplicate posts.

■Notes

・Please integrate both Google Sheets and WordPress with Yoom.

・You can choose the trigger interval from 5, 10, 15, 30, or 60 minutes.

・Please note that the shortest trigger interval varies depending on the plan.

Step 2: Set a trigger to activate when the status is updated in Google Sheets

From here, we will edit the Flowbot.

__wf_reserved_inherit

Click on the Google Sheets icon "When a row is updated".

__wf_reserved_inherit

Check for any errors in the account information to be linked, enter the required items, and click "Next".

__wf_reserved_inherit

Set the activation interval.
The trigger can be set to activate at intervals of 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, or 60 minutes.
Please note that the shortest activation interval varies depending on the plan.

__wf_reserved_inherit

The data from Google Sheets will be displayed in a list, so click and insert the sheet you want to link. Set the sheet ID in the same way.

__wf_reserved_inherit

Specify the table range.

__wf_reserved_inherit

This time, the table range of the prepared Google Sheets is A~J.

__wf_reserved_inherit

Once the settings are complete, press the "Test button".
If "Test successful" is displayed, it is complete. Click Save.

__wf_reserved_inherit

Once the settings are complete, click "Test" → "Test successful" → "Save".
