After signing in, you can create your own free account in just two minutes. Once logged in, click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button located at the top right corner of the dashboard. Name your workflow, for example, ‘Google Sheets to ClickUp’, and click on ‘Create’ to proceed.

Setting Up Google Sheets Trigger in Pabbly Connect

Now that your workflow is created, the next step is to set up a trigger in Pabbly Connect. Choose ‘Google Sheets’ as the trigger app, and select ‘New Spreadsheet Row’ as the trigger event. This means that whenever a new row is added to your Google Sheet, it will trigger an action in ClickUp.

To ensure that Pabbly Connect can capture data from Google Sheets, you need to set up your Google Sheet correctly. Your sheet should have relevant columns like Task, Description, Start Date, and End Date. Once your Google Sheet is ready, go to the ‘Add-ons’ menu, select ‘Pabbly Connect Webhooks’, and click on ‘Initial Setup’ to get the webhook URL from Pabbly Connect.

• Open your Google Sheet and navigate to Add-ons.
• Select Pabbly Connect Webhooks and click on Initial Setup.
• Copy the Webhook URL from Pabbly Connect and paste it into the appropriate field in Google Sheets.

After pasting the URL, identify the last column of your data as the trigger column. This setup will allow Pabbly Connect to listen for new entries in your Google Sheet.

Capturing Data from Google Sheets with Pabbly Connect

With the trigger set, the next step is to capture data from Google Sheets using Pabbly Connect. Click on the ‘Capture Webhook Response’ button in Pabbly Connect. This action will allow Pabbly Connect to wait for data from Google Sheets.

Go back to your Google Sheet and click on ‘Send Test’ to send the data to Pabbly Connect. Once the data is sent, you will see a confirmation message indicating that the data has been received. This confirms that Pabbly Connect is now successfully capturing data from your Google Sheet.

• Ensure the data you want to capture is present in the Google Sheet.
• Test the webhook to confirm data is being captured correctly.
• Check the response in Pabbly Connect to verify the captured data.

After confirming that the data has been captured successfully, you can proceed to format the date fields correctly for ClickUp.

Formatting Date Fields for ClickUp in Pabbly Connect

Next, it’s essential to format the date fields correctly for ClickUp using Pabbly Connect. Click on the ‘+’ button to add an action step, and select ‘DateTime Formatter’ as the app. This will allow you to convert the Start Date and End Date into the required format.

In the DateTime Formatter setup, choose ‘Format’ as the method. Map the Start Date from the captured data, and set your timezone. Since ClickUp requires the date in POSIX format, make sure to select the appropriate formatting option. Repeat this process for the End Date as well.

Select ‘DateTime Formatter’ for formatting date fields. Map the Start Date and End Date correctly. Ensure the dates are converted into POSIX format for ClickUp.

Once the dates are formatted, you can proceed to sync all the data with ClickUp.

Syncing Data to ClickUp Using Pabbly Connect

Now that your data is formatted, it’s time to sync it to ClickUp using Pabbly Connect. Click on the ‘+’ button again and select ClickUp as the app. Choose ‘Create Task’ as the action method. This action will create a new task in ClickUp based on the data received from Google Sheets.

To connect Pabbly Connect to ClickUp, you will need your ClickUp API token. Navigate to your ClickUp account, go to the ‘Apps’ section, and copy the API token. Paste this token into Pabbly Connect to establish the connection.

Select ‘Create Task’ in ClickUp as the action method. Paste your ClickUp API token into Pabbly Connect. Map the required fields such as Task Name, Description, and Dates.
