Notice when a saved spreadsheet result changes
Let the relevant Slack conversation carry a small cue when rows in a saved query result are added, removed, or updated.
Trigger
Table Query Result Changed
Triggers when the result set of a saved table query changes in Google Sheets. Detects rows added, removed, or updated in the query output. This trigger monitors the result of a SQL query against a Google Sheets table and fires when changes are detected.
Action
Add reaction to message
Adds a specified emoji reaction to an existing message in a slack channel, identified by its timestamp; does not remove or retrieve reactions.
