  • How can I use Paths to launch different apps based on content in a new Google Sheets row?

I have a Zap that uses "New Spreadsheet Row in Google Sheets" as a trigger. This trigger is activated when responses are submitted in a Google Form linked to the spreadsheet. However, depending on the content of one of the cells in that row, a different app will be executed using paths. How can I make sure that the app launcher always reads the new row created in the app to decide which app to launch?

Hi @yoshi_castro,

Welcome to the Community! 🎉

The Zap will always execute once there’s a new row in the spreadsheet. However, you have to lookout for these scenarios that can cause your Google Sheets trigger to break.

You can read more about that here: https://help.zapier.com/hc/en-us/articles/8496276985101-Work-with-Google-Sheets-in-Zaps#turn-your-zap-off-before-making-changes-to-your-sheet-0-4

Hopefully, this helps!
