How do I create a Zap that every day looks up the next row in Google sheets?

I have a sheet with 2 columns. Day and Prompt.  A and B respectively.  

 

To give you an example of a use case, I have a Google spreadsheet with motivational quotes in column B on each row, and every day I want to send the next quote to Gmail. I don’t want to send the very latest quote at the bottom of the list, or a random quote from the list, only the next quote in the list.

 

And someone told me to use “Zapier’s built-in day counter” ?  where do I set this value?

 

TIA

Hi ​@SelfShiftAI 

May depend on how your GSheet column values are configured.

e.g. Date formatted as YYYY-MM-DD

You can use a Formatter > Date & Time > Format to get today’s date in the desired Format.
