Is there a tool or a work around where you can identify a duplicate row within a Google Sheet and remove that row?  Of course, all of this has to be done seamlessly, daily and automatically.

 

Just curious…..thanks

Hi @blueguy 

Good question.

Thanks as always!  I know how to do that basic task in Google Sheets; I was looking for away to automate that process in Zapier.  That would be a cool feature!

 

 


@blueguy 

Try these Zap steps:

Action: GSheets - Lookup Row

Action: GSheets - Delete Row


I know those tools exist and I could conceive of a way of doing this; let me take a crack at it….

 

thanks

Some follow up…

 

Using the look up row and then delete row feature does work; of course you have to look from the top of the sheet because if you look from the bottom of the sheet you will always get the row that triggered the result in the first place

 

Otherwise, good call and easy to do.  Thanks

Thanks so much for circling back in here to let us know how you got on with Troy’s suggestion of using a Lookup Spreadsheet Row and Delete Spreadsheet Row action, @blueguy. The Community greatly appreciates it! 🤗
