When a row is added in Google Sheets, add data to Microsoft Excel while excluding duplicates
Launch this workflow to connect
Microsoft Excel &
Google Sheets
!
■Overview
Regularly transferring data accumulated in Google Sheets to Microsoft Excel can be time-consuming. In particular, manually checking for duplicates is prone to errors and can make it difficult to maintain data consistency. With this workflow, whenever a row is added to Google Sheets, it is automatically checked against the data in Microsoft Excel, and the data is added only if no duplicate is found.
■Who Should Use This Template
- Those who manage customer or deal information in both Google Sheets and Microsoft Excel
- Data management professionals who spend significant time manually transferring data and checking for duplicates
- Those who want to prevent human errors such as duplicate data entry and improve data accuracy
■Benefits of Using This Template
- Automate everything from checking for duplicates to adding data to Microsoft Excel whenever a row is added to Google Sheets, reducing the time spent on manual work.
- Automatically determine whether duplicate data exists to prevent human errors such as duplicate entries and improve data management accuracy.
■Flowbot Workflow
- First, connect Google Sheets and Microsoft Excel to Yoom.
- Next, select Google Sheets as the trigger and set the “When a row is added” action to define what starts the flow.
- Next, set the Microsoft Excel “Get records” action as an operation to check whether the added data already exists in Excel.
- Next, configure branching as an operation and set the conditions so that the flow proceeds only when the data does not exist, based on the results retrieved in the previous step.
- Finally, configure the Microsoft Excel “Add record” action as another operation to add only new data to the sheet.
※ “Trigger”: An action that starts the flow. “Operation”: An action that performs processing within the flow after the trigger starts.
■Customization Options
- For the Google Sheets trigger, specify the spreadsheet and sheet you want to automate.
- For the Microsoft Excel get records action, you can specify any file and sheet and flexibly configure the search criteria. You can also set information retrieved from Google Sheets as variables.
- For branching, you can define the conditions under which subsequent operations are executed based on the information retrieved in the previous step.
- For the Microsoft Excel add record action, specify the destination file and sheet, and freely customize which information is assigned to each field.
■Notes
- Connect both Google Sheets and Microsoft Excel to Yoom.
- Microsoft 365 (formerly Office 365) offers plans for home use and general business use (Microsoft 365 Business). Authentication may fail if you are not subscribed to a general business plan.
- You can choose a trigger interval of 5, 10, 15, 30, or 60 minutes.
- Please note that the shortest available trigger interval varies by plan.
- For notes on using Google Sheets as an app trigger, see “[App Triggers] Notes on Google Sheets Triggers”.
- For details on configuring operations that work with Microsoft Excel databases, see “[Excel] Configuring Operations for Working with Databases”.
- Branching is an operation available on the Personal plan and higher. On the Free plan, operations configured in Flowbot will result in an error.
- Paid plans, such as the Personal plan, include a 2-week free trial. During the free trial, you can use apps and features (operations) that are otherwise subject to plan restrictions.
