Click "Try this template". 

Click "OK" and give the Flowbot a name to recognize.

This template will be copied to your “My Project”.

Step 3: Google Sheets Trigger Action

First, click the "When a row is added" icon at the top.

Give the trigger a title (optional) and verify that the correct Google account is selected.
Then, click "Next".

Set your trigger interval (frequency of sync) to how frequently Yoom checks Google Sheets for updates. It can be set to 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, or 60 minutes. We recommend setting the trigger to the shortest activation interval available for your plan.

⚠️ Note: The trigger interval varies depending on your Yoom plan. Be sure to check your current plan’s limit.

Select the Spreadsheet ID and Sheet ID (where Yoom checks for updates) from the displayed options.

Specify the Table Range (Start), Table Range (End), based on where your data starts and ends in Google Sheets.

For Column with Unique Values, select a column with no duplicate values, such as email addresses or IDs. This column will act as the unique key.

For this example, we prepared the following Google Sheets for testing purposes.
Once the setup is complete, click "Test".

If the test is successful, the information retrieved from Google Sheets will be displayed as the retrieved value, as shown below.
Don't forget to click "Save" after the test is complete!

Step 4: Organize and Summarize with ChatGPT

Next, click the "Summarize" icon.

Give your action a title (optional) and confirm your ChatGPT account is selected.
Then, click "Next".

Click on the input field to display data retrieved from Google Sheets as Meeting Names or Meeting Dates. You can use these dynamic values to create your instruction. Using the retrieved values will create instructions that change each time the flow is triggered. Avoid entering fixed text in the message content, as it will generate the same way every time.

For this example, we want ChatGPT to create meeting minutes. So we select "Minutes" from the Google Sheet's retrieved value.

📚 Reference: For more details on retrieved values and how to set them up, see the guide here.

Settings like temperature and maximum token count are optional, so feel free to adjust them as needed. Refer to the annotations for guidance when modifying these settings.

Once the setup is complete, click "Test" and save if there are no issues!

Step 5: Update Google Sheets

Finally, click the "Operate Database" icon.

Set the account information to link with Google Sheets.
Make sure "Update record" is selected as the action.

Spreadsheet ID, Worksheet Tab Name

• Select from the displayed options.
• This is where you specify where you want to add the generated meeting minutes.

Table Range:

• Set the table range where you want to add your data.
• For this example, we will set it as below.

📚 Reference: For more details on table range settings, check this guide.

Once the setup is complete, click "Next".

Set the conditions for updating the record. In this case, the condition is the "Meeting No." which serves as the unique key.

Now we specify what data to add to Google Sheets.

In this case, we want to add the summarized content from ChatGPT into Google Sheets. So we will select "Response Content" to quote ChatGPT output in the meeting minutes column.

Once the setup is complete, click "Test".

If the test is successful, the summary generated by ChatGPT will get added into the specified column in Google Sheets.
Once confirmed, don't forget to click "Save"!

Step 5: Activate the Flowbot

Toggle the "Trigger On" button to activate your flow! Check if the Flowbot you set up is working properly.

That’s it! Your Flowbot is complete!
