Start Clientary projects from approved intake rows

Turn an approved project intake row into a Clientary project without retyping the basics.

Trigger

New Rows in Google Sheet

Simple polling trigger that monitors Google Sheets for new rows. Detects when new rows are added and returns the complete row data. Perfect for triggering any workflow based on new sheet entries.

Action

Create Project

Tool to create a new project in Clientary with name and rate. Use when you need to set up a new project for tracking time, expenses, or managing client work.

Why this helps

Project setup can stall after approval while details wait to be copied from an intake sheet.

  • Start project setup from the intake sheet.
  • Carry the stated project name and rate into Clientary.
  • Make missing setup details visible through run reports.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Sheets and Clientary once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and give it a name.
  • 3Tell Notis: For each new approved project row, create a Clientary project using its stated name and rate, and report any missing required details.
  • 4Pick New Rows in Google Sheet as the trigger and choose a report channel.
  • 5Test with one real approved project row.

Questions about this workflow

What information does Clientary require for the project?

The create project action requires a project name and rate. Make sure the row or your instruction provides those details.

Can it decide whether a row is approved?

Yes, if the row includes a clear approval status and your instruction names the value that means approved.

Does it also create a client?

This workflow creates a project. Include any client context needed by Clientary in the row or instruction, and review the run report if required information is missing.
