Turn new spreadsheet rows into Databox records

Each new row can become a timely dataset update, so recent activity is ready for dashboard review.

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

Push Data to Dataset (V1)

Tool to push data points to a Databox dataset using the v1 API. Use when you need to ingest data records into a specific dataset by providing the dataset ID and an array of records matching the dataset schema.

Why this helps

New entries accumulate while someone has to remember which ones belong in Databox reporting.

  • Capture complete row data as new entries arrive.
  • Reduce delays between operational tracking and KPI review.
  • Keep ingestion results visible in Notis run reports.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Google Sheets and Databox once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, with a name, prompt, report channel, and trigger.
  • 3Tell Notis how to turn each new row into a record for the Databox dataset.
  • 4Pick the Google Sheets New Rows in Google Sheet trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one real new row.

Questions about this workflow

What row information does the trigger provide?

The trigger detects new rows and returns their complete row data.

What if a new row lacks information the dataset needs?

Ask Notis to report the missing information. Any field not present in the row must be supplied by you or treated as missing.
