Update cell when row is added and conditions met

[dgg]

Hi there,

I need to create a workflow between Google Sheets where the trigger is new row in a spreadsheet and the action should be to update a cell in another spreadsheet.

But for this action to be performed I want the workflow to meet to conditions. Value from column "1 Reference" in the trigger spreadsheet must be the same than value in column "1 Reference" in the spreadsheet that will be updated; and value from column "Name" must also be the same in both spreadsheets.

Update cell in column range H:H with value PAID of action spreadsheet

WHEN

Values in fields REFERENCE and NAME in the new row of the trigger spreadsheet

ARE THE SAME THAN / MATCH

Values in fields REFERENCE and NAME of a row in the action spreadsheet.


I've been trying to perform a lookup spreadsheet action combined with conditioning but I didn't succeed. Any orientation is welcome.

Thank you!

Hey @dgg

As we can see from your workflow for your concern, you need to pass the column name from your Google Sheets instead of data to retrieve the corresponding row.

Kindly try your "Lookup Spreadsheet Rows" action step again as mentioned in the help text and let us know if you face any further issues.

I'm afraid it doesn't work. I'm lost here.

Hey @dgg

Kindly try your worklfow(TEST MARK AS PAID WORKFLOW ) again and let us know if that works for you.

now I'm facing another issue. does it return false because of the accent?

Hey @dgg

The value which you are facing contains a different character in the value and because of that, the filter got a false response.
