Hello, right now I have the data that comes from an email to go to a google sheet. However the data that comes in goes to the bottom. Is there a way to have it update the top row so the old data pushes down each time?

Hi @Jonny Aaron 

Good question.

New rows will be added to the bottom of the GSheet.

Have you reviewed the available help articles for using GSheets in Zaps?

I’d recommend using Airtable instead of GSheets.

Airtable has Views, which are segments of data. (sort, filter, group, reorder fields, show/hide fields)

Never heard of Airtable I will look into it. Would it work for something like this situation. We receive emails with transcripts of phone calls. I then grab those transcripts and add the information in a google sheet for the rest of the company to see. I just wanted a way for everyone to keep up on phone calls and if we completed the task from that call.

Thank you,
