Morning all!

i would like to create a zap that links a JotForm that a client complete to an entry in a gsheet cell.

 

i am a dogminder and walker. Owner complete form for little Poppy to be walked 4 April.

A Zap will add the name Poppy in the next available cell in the tow for the 4 April. (Green one)

i can book up to 4 dogs.

 

hope the image helps 😁

 

JOTFORM that client completes is here: https://form.jotform.com/233300649556861


thanks for your time and help! R

Hi @Resi 

There are some limitations to be aware of.

Column A in the GSheet must can NOT be hidden.

Help articles for using GSheets in Zaps: https://zapier.com/apps/google-sheets/help

 

You would have to add logic in the Zap to find the existing row, then determine how many spots are currently filled (0-4), to then determine which column to fill in.

 

You would also need to build in logic if there are already 4 spots filled for a day, and how you want to handle that.


Thank you @Troy Tessalone 

great advice. Not a problem to unhide ColumnA.

i looked at the link you shared and I am a bit confused as I can’t find what I think I am looking  for. 
 

i don’t get huge numbers of bookings so at this stage I won’t worry if we get more then 4 entries.

would you be able to suggest a way forward on the logic I might need to incorporate in the zap? Ian not sure how to proceed from here.

thanks! R 


@Resi 

The logic likely would involve Code or a complex formula to determine which column to fill.

An alternative approach is to use Airtable and create a relational database with availability slots and logic that won’t let someone select an availability slot if it is full.
