Turn spreadsheet rename requests into Contentful space updates
Keep space name changes moving from a simple request queue, with the version information Contentful requires.
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
Update space
Updates the name of a specific space. notes: - the version number is required to ensure you're updating the latest version of the space. - you can get the current version from the sys.version field when fetching space details. - only the name of the space can be updated.
Why this helps
Space rename requests can sit in a spreadsheet while someone manually carries details into Contentful.
- Process new rename requests as rows arrive.
- Keep the requested new name and Contentful identifiers together.
- Reduce manual follow-up for routine space name changes.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Sheets and Contentful once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in the portal or tell Notis from any channel what it should do.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to use each new row's space ID, new name, and current Contentful version to update that space name.
- 4Pick New Rows in Google Sheet as the trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real request row that includes a current version.
Questions about this workflow
What details must each request row include?
Include the Contentful space ID, the desired name, and the current version number. Contentful requires a version for a space update.
Can Notis find the current version for me?
This workflow uses the version supplied in the request row. The listed update action requires a version number.
