If you have experience as a manager or in a managerial position, you may have struggled with task management methods.
Especially when managing tasks across multiple apps, there are many issues you might want to improve, such as information inconsistencies and the hassle of entering the same information twice.
To solve these problems, I created a flow where when a ToDo object is registered in Salesforce, the same task information is automatically added to Google Sheets.
This is recommended for those who manage tasks in Salesforce but want to graph progress in Google Sheets or want to reduce the hassle of task management.
Use this article as a reference to automate your task management!

Benefits of Integrating Salesforce and Google Sheets

Benefit 1: Prevention of Human Error

When entering task information manually into both Salesforce and Google Sheets, the risk of information inconsistencies and forgetting to update increases.
For example, "The due date was September 1st in Salesforce, but it was October 1st in Google Sheets," or "The information in Google Sheets remained outdated."
When there are data inconsistencies, unnecessary tasks such as correction work and verifying correct information arise.
By using the integration in this article, manual work is reduced, leading to prevention of human error, which helps maintain information consistency.

Benefit 2: Smoother Communication

By utilizing the automatic integration in this article, the ToDo object in Salesforce is automatically reflected in Google Sheets, making it easier to access the desired information and ensuring data transparency.
Additionally, you can graph progress in Google Sheets based on accurate information, which is expected to improve the accuracy of progress management.
This allows multiple teams to accurately grasp the latest task status, leading to smoother communication between teams and helping avoid misunderstandings arising from information opacity.

Flow for Integrating Salesforce and Google Sheets

※Important Notes※
・Salesforce is an app available only with the Team Plan and Success Plan. If you are on the Free Plan or Mini Plan, the operations and data connections set in the flow bot will result in errors, so please be careful.
・Paid plans such as the Team Plan and Success Plan offer a 2-week free trial. During the free trial, you can use apps that are subject to restrictions.

Now, let's introduce the steps to actually integrate Salesforce and Google Sheets.
The specific setup steps are as follows.

  1. Set up the app trigger
  2. Add a record

At Yoom, we provide the above two steps as a template.
You can create a flow bot more easily than creating from scratch, so first, click the "Try it" button on the banner below to copy the template!

Preparation

After copying the template, first register Salesforce and Google Sheets from Yoom's "My Apps" as a preparation.
※ If you have already registered, please proceed to "Step 1. Set App Trigger".

<Procedure>

1. After logging into Yoom, click "+ New Connection" from the "My Apps" menu on the left

2. Search for the app name, enter the necessary information, and register the app

If Salesforce and Google Sheets are displayed in the My Apps list, the preparation is complete!

Let's proceed to the detailed settings!

Step 1. Set App Trigger

First, click on the app trigger "When a record is registered in the ToDo object".

On the first page, the pre-linked account information will be displayed, so please check it.
If there are no issues, click "Next".

On the next page, set up the connection with Salesforce and the API.
Specify the trigger activation interval and My Domain URL.
※ The time that can be specified for the trigger activation interval varies depending on your plan. For details, please see
here.

If the test is successful, the fields of the Salesforce object will be reflected in the output.

If there are no issues up to this point, click "Save" to complete the trigger settings.

Step 2. Add a Record

Next, click "Add a Record".

At the beginning of the first page, as in Step 1, account information is listed, so please check it.

Below that, there are input fields necessary for linking with Google Sheets.
Specify the Spreadsheet ID and tab name.

On the next page, set the values for the record to be added.
Utilize the information output from Salesforce.

Click "Test" and if no errors appear, click "Save".

If a popup like the image below appears, all settings are complete.
When you turn on the trigger, the flow will be executed.

I've been working for SaaS companies as a customer success since I was a student. I was working using multiple cloud services, and there were times when I thought it would be convenient if services could be linked more easily with each other. Since apps can be linked without code with Yoom, anyone can easily set it up. I would like to be able to convey the appeal of Yoom in an easy-to-understand manner and contribute to improving everyone's work efficiency!
