About This Workflow
This workflow automates the process of converting data from a spreadsheet into actionable tasks within Onfleet. It leverages n8n to read an Excel file, parse its contents, and then create corresponding tasks in Onfleet. By mapping spreadsheet columns like recipient name, address details, and task notes, you can ensure all necessary information is transferred accurately. This significantly reduces the risk of human error and saves valuable time for dispatchers and operations managers, allowing them to focus on more strategic aspects of their business.
