How to connect LearnDash and Google Sheets
Create a New Scenario to Connect LearnDash and Google Sheets
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 LearnDash, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, LearnDash or Google Sheets will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find LearnDash or Google Sheets, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

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

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring LearnDash, 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 LearnDash and Google Sheets integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between LearnDash 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 LearnDash and Google Sheets
LearnDash + Google Sheets + Slack: When a student completes a course in LearnDash, their information is automatically added to a new row in Google Sheets. Subsequently, a congratulatory message is sent to the student via Slack.
Google Sheets + LearnDash + Zoom: When a new row is added to a Google Sheet (representing a course registration), the user is automatically enrolled in the corresponding LearnDash course. A welcome call is then scheduled via Zoom, and the meeting details sent to the user.
