Effortlessly Import CSV Data to Google Sheets
detail.loadingPreview
Automate the process of fetching CSV data from a URL and seamlessly updating your Google Sheets. This workflow streamlines data integration for enhanced analysis and reporting.
About This Workflow
This n8n workflow provides a powerful and efficient solution for automating data migration from CSV files hosted online directly into your Google Sheets. It begins by downloading a specified CSV file from a URL, then intelligently processes the data. A crucial step involves adding a unique identifier to each row, ensuring data integrity and enabling easy updates. The workflow then filters the data to include only specific entries, such as regional data from a particular year, before appending or updating it in your chosen Google Sheet. This robust automation saves significant manual effort, reduces errors, and ensures your spreadsheets are always up-to-date with the latest information.
Key Features
- Automated CSV Download: Fetches CSV data directly from any provided URL.
- Intelligent Data Processing: Adds unique keys for efficient data management and updates.
- Flexible Data Filtering: Allows you to selectively import data based on criteria like region and year.
- Seamless Google Sheets Integration: Appends or updates data directly into your Google Sheets in real-time.
- Configurable Column Mapping: Ensures data is correctly mapped to your spreadsheet columns.
How To Use
- Download CSV: Configure the 'Download CSV' node with the direct URL of your CSV file.
- Import CSV: Ensure the 'Import CSV' node is set to read the downloaded file, with 'headerRow' enabled if your CSV has headers.
- Add Unique Field: In the 'Add unique field' node, define a rule (e.g., using
$json.country_codeand$json.year_week) to create a unique identifier for each row, which is essential for the 'appendOrUpdate' operation in Google Sheets. - Filter Data (Optional): Use the 'Keep only DACH in 2023' node to set conditions for filtering your data. Modify the
conditionsparameter to match your specific filtering requirements. - Upload to Spreadsheet: Configure the 'Upload to spreadsheet' node by selecting your Google Cloud credentials, specifying the target Google Sheet ('documentId' and 'sheetName'), and ensuring the 'columns' mapping is set to 'autoMapInputData' or manually defined to match your CSV and sheet structure. The 'operation' should be set to 'appendOrUpdate'.
- Execute Workflow: Click the 'Execute Workflow' button on the manual trigger node to initiate the data import process.
