Hi,

 

I need help making a Zap for a daily report that sends out to my Gmail as a CSV attachment.

I need to connect it to the main Google Sheet and it has to update everytime I receive the report in Gmail as a CSV attachhment. 

Can you please help me make a Zap for this? I can’t figure it out. 

@sfbrian,

Zapier can automatically save your email attachments to Google Drive. Whenever you get a new email in Gmail with an attachment, this Zap will save it to the Google Drive folder you want - just be sure to pick one when setting this up, otherwise we'll add the file to the root of your Drive.

Take a look at https://zapier.com/apps/gmail/integrations/google-drive/192/save-new-gmail-attachments-to-google-drive

Also, take a look at this to take you from file to sheet...https://help.gocanvas.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360002727113-csv-to-zapier-to-google-sheets

@David Mercer  Thanks for the reply. I have checked the following links. But I think what it does it only adds the attached CSV into Google Drive or create new worksheets?

What we need is a  MASTER GOOGLE SHEET  that will automatically update each time we receive an email with an attached CSV.

Do you think this can be done?

 

Thank you

 

 


Thank for the clarification.  Take a look at the capabilities of Zapier Formatter and CSV files.  https://zapier.com/help/doc/how-import-csv-files-formatter

@Mercology thanks. I’ll check



@Mercology  @David Mercer I have tried to use Formatter but this won’t accept my CSV file because it is more than 150kb. So there is a data limit in order for Zapier to import the data into Google Sheets? 


@David Mercer @Mercology 

 

This is the error message that I am getting :

 

CSV Import only supports file sizes < 150K error
The utility only supports importing files that are 150K or less (which is around 1000 rows of a 10 column CSV file.) You'll need to split the CSV file into multiple files if it's too large.


With the 150K limit, you are at a dead end.
