I’m trying to get zapier to send slack messages based on the date/column in excel. The excel sheet is updated daily and I want zapier to send slack messages for each row with a particular date or date range

Hi @Kal 

Good question.

 

The Excel Find Row Zap action will only return 1 row.

 

GSheets has 2 Zap actions that will return multiple records (MAX 10 or 20)

 

Otherwise, you can use an Airtable Base with the Airtable API to return multiple records.

NOTE: The Airtable API has pagination that returns 100 records per page.

@Troy Tessalone - Thank you. Will using Gsheets allow me to use variable data-as in  date range for certain cells/columns?

Yes and no.

With GSheets, depends on how the data is structured.

You may need to use another GSheet tab with formulas to dynamically query for the desired date range.

 

The Airtable API has a filterByFormula parameter...
