1. Setting Up Pabbly Connect for Google Sheets and PostgreSQL

To automate the process of adding a Google Sheets row in PostgreSQL, we will utilize Pabbly Connect. This platform allows seamless integration between Google Sheets and PostgreSQL, ensuring that data flows smoothly from one to the other.

Start by signing up for a free account on Pabbly Connect. Once you have created your account, navigate to the dashboard and click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button. Name your workflow, for example, ‘Google Sheets to PostgreSQL’ and select the folder for your Pabbly account. Click on ‘Create’ to proceed.

2. Triggering Google Sheets Integration via Pabbly Connect

In this step, we will set up the trigger for our workflow using Pabbly Connect. Select ‘Google Sheets’ as the application and choose the trigger event as ‘New or Updated Spreadsheet Row.’ This will ensure that any new data entered into Google Sheets will trigger the workflow.

After selecting the trigger, Pabbly Connect will provide a webhook URL. Copy this URL and head to your Google Sheets. Go to Extensions > Add-ons > Get Add-ons, and search for ‘Pabbly Connect Webhooks’. Install this add-on and refresh your Google Sheets.

• Install the Pabbly Connect Webhooks add-on.
• Go to Extensions > Pabbly Connect Webhooks > Initial Setup.
• Paste the webhook URL and set the trigger column, usually the last column with data.

Complete the setup by sending a test request to ensure that Pabbly Connect successfully receives the data from Google Sheets. Once confirmed, click the ‘Submit’ button to finalize the trigger configuration.

3. Connecting PostgreSQL with Pabbly Connect

Now that we have the trigger set up, we will connect PostgreSQL to Pabbly Connect. In the action step, search for ‘PostgreSQL’ and select it. Choose the action event as ‘Insert Row into a Table’ to add new data to your PostgreSQL database.

Next, click on ‘Connect’ and select ‘Add New Connection’. You will need to enter your PostgreSQL credentials, including username, password, host name, database, and port. Once entered, click on ‘Save’ to establish the connection between Pabbly Connect and PostgreSQL.

• Enter PostgreSQL username and password.
• Select the database and table where data will be inserted.
• Map the fields from Google Sheets to the corresponding columns in PostgreSQL.

After successfully connecting, select the table in your PostgreSQL database where you want to insert the data. Ensure that all columns in the table are correctly mapped to the respective fields received from Google Sheets.

4. Mapping Data from Google Sheets to PostgreSQL

With the connection established, it’s time to map the data from Google Sheets to PostgreSQL using Pabbly Connect. In the action step, you will see fields corresponding to the columns in your PostgreSQL table.

For each field in PostgreSQL, select the corresponding data from Google Sheets. For example, map the ID, Name, Email, Mobile Number, City, Age, and Gender fields. This ensures that when a new row is added in Google Sheets, the same data will be inserted into PostgreSQL.

Once all fields are mapped, click on the ‘Save and Send Test Request’ button. This will send the data to PostgreSQL, and you should receive a confirmation response indicating successful data insertion.

5. Testing the Automation Workflow with Pabbly Connect

To ensure that the automation workflow is functioning correctly, add a new row of data in your Google Sheets. For instance, enter a new lead with details such as ID, Name, Email, Mobile Number, City, Age, and Gender.

After entering the new data, check your PostgreSQL database to verify that the new row has been added successfully. Within seconds, you should see that the data from Google Sheets appears in PostgreSQL, confirming that the integration via Pabbly Connect is working perfectly.

This automation allows you to streamline data entry processes, ensuring that your Google Sheets and PostgreSQL databases are always in sync without manual effort.

Conclusion

In this tutorial, we demonstrated how to add Google Sheets rows in PostgreSQL using Pabbly Connect. This integration simplifies data management and ensures seamless data flow between applications, enhancing productivity.
