How do you automate spreadsheets with Sheetgo in 2026?
Quick Answer: As of April 2026, Sheetgo automates spreadsheets by installing the Google Workspace add-on (or signing in to the web app), creating connections that pull data from one sheet to another, applying filters and merges, and scheduling automatic updates from hourly to weekly.
Automating Spreadsheets With Sheetgo
Sheetgo connects spreadsheets across Google Sheets, Excel, and CSV sources to build automated reporting and data consolidation pipelines. Setup takes under an hour for a typical use case.
Step 1 — Install Sheetgo
Install the Sheetgo add-on from Google Workspace Marketplace, or sign in at sheetgo.com. The web app also supports Excel for the web (OneDrive) and CSV uploads.
Step 2 — Create a Workflow
In the Sheetgo dashboard, click New Workflow → Connect. Choose the source spreadsheet and tab, then choose the destination spreadsheet and tab. Sheetgo creates a one-way connection that copies the data on every update.
Step 3 — Apply Transformations
Sheetgo offers four built-in transformations:
- Filter — Keep rows matching a condition (e.g., "Status = Open")
- Merge — Combine multiple source sheets into one destination
- Split — Send rows to different destinations based on a column value
- Append — Add new rows without duplicating existing ones
Configure each transformation in the connection panel before saving.
Step 4 — Schedule Updates
Click Automate on the connection to set a schedule:
- Hourly (Business plan and above)
- Daily
- Weekly
- Monthly
Sheetgo runs the connection on the chosen interval and emails errors to the workflow owner.
Step 5 — Build Dashboards
Sheetgo offers prebuilt templates for inventory, finance, project tracking, and KPIs. Templates wire connections, transformations, and a dashboard sheet in one click.
Pricing Note
Sheetgo Professional starts at $22/month (annual billing) with hourly updates and 5,000 transferred rows per execution. For database-style workflows, Airtable is a common alternative.
