Hi
Welcome to the community. To automate data transfer from Facebook Potential Customer Center to Google Sheets, set up a Zap using Facebook Lead Ads as the trigger, select 'New Lead', connect your Facebook account, then set up Google Sheets as the action app and map relevant fields, finally test and activate your Zap. Let us know if this helps you jump start your Zap. Thanks!
Thanks
Hi
At the moment, Zaps are only built to look at new and incoming information, and won't process existing data. You can read a bit more about this here: https://help.zapier.com/hc/en-us/articles/8495906143373-Why-isn-t-my-Zap-triggering-on-existing-records
This means that data created before the Zap is turned on won't be pulled in automatically.
That said, if you're able to export that data as a spreadsheet or CSV file, you may be able to "import" them using a separate Zap. This guide has some great visual references for getting that workaround set up: https://help.zapier.com/hc/en-us/articles/8496274335885-Transfer-existing-data-using-a-Zap
Hopefully, this helps.
