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

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

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Microsoft Excel, Google Groups, 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 Microsoft Excel and Google Groups integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Microsoft Excel and Google Groups (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
