How to connect Ghost and Smartsheet
Create a New Scenario to Connect Ghost and Smartsheet
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.

Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a Ghost, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Ghost or Smartsheet will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Ghost or Smartsheet, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the Ghost Node
Select the Ghost node from the app selection panel on the right.

- Branching: Create multiple branches within the scenario to handle complex logic.
- Merging: Combine different node branches into one, passing data through it.
- Plug n Play Nodes: Use nodes that don’t require account credentials.
- Ask AI: Use the GPT-powered option to add AI capabilities to any node.
- Wait: Set waiting times, either for intervals or until specific dates.
- Sub-scenarios (Nodules): Create sub-scenarios that are encapsulated in a single node.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Ghost, Smartsheet, 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 Ghost and Smartsheet integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Ghost and Smartsheet (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Ghost and Smartsheet
Ghost + Smartsheet + Slack: When a new post is published on Ghost, a new row is added to a Smartsheet to track the post. A message is then sent to a Slack channel to notify the team of the new post.
Smartsheet + Ghost + Twitter: When a new event occurs in Smartsheet (e.g., a row is updated), the automation finds a related blog post in Ghost and automatically sends a public channel message in Slack to the marketing team so they can create and schedule the related tweet manually.
