Save and Activate the Scenario

After configuring Creatomate, Google Sheets, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.

Test the Scenario

Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the Creatomate and Google Sheets integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Creatomate and Google Sheets (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.

Most powerful ways to connect Creatomate and Google Sheets

Google Sheets + Creatomate + Slack: When a new row is added to a Google Sheet, Creatomate renders a video from a specified template using the row's data. Once the video is rendered, a Slack message is sent to a designated channel, notifying the team of the new video's availability.

Google Sheets + Creatomate + Airtable: When a new row is added to a Google Sheet, Creatomate renders a video. Upon completion, the video's link and associated data from the Google Sheet row are added as a new record in Airtable, creating a centralized video library.
