Using Google Sheets for Apps

Learn how to use the Deplyr Google Sheets integration.

Usage Tips & Limitations

• Your Google Sheet ID can be found in the URL bar of your browser at the noted section https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/<GOOGLE SHEET ID>/edit?gid=0#gid=0

• Deplyr cannot create a Sheet or tabs for you, you must provide a sheet ID in your prompt

• It's recommended to have your sheet structure (e.g. headings, etc.) created beforehand

• Be specific about your sheet structure for the best success. You should copy/paste your sheet headers and a few rows into Deplyr.

Example - Lead Capture Form

Let's build a lead capture form using Deplyr and Google Sheets with some custom logic.

This example shows how Deplyr’s AI chat can generate a fully functional app from a single prompt. While the form is intentionally simple, making single-shot generation expected, it still highlights the speed and ease of building with Deplyr.

Prerequisites:

1. Connect Google Sheets: on the Integrations tab in Deplyr click Connect.

2. Create a Google Sheet and grab a sheet ID.

Try the following prompt

Use my google sheet to store responses. my sheet ID is <sheet ID>
Create a form that collects the following lead information:
- Name
- Email
- Message
If the email domain is one of the following be sure to show another field that says "How did you hear about us?"
Have a checkbox that links to our privacy policy and terms of service with the text "By checking this box you accept our Privacy Policy" and "Terms of Service" and the submit button should be disabled until that checkbox is checked.

Prompting Tips

• If you're missing your Sheet ID in your Deplyr app you can use the prompt below to add your Sheet ID.

Add my Google Sheet ID <sheet ID>

• If you need to tell Deplyr what your Google Sheet headers are, you can simply copy/paste the header row

Here are my Google Sheet headers. Make any necessary adjustments: <paste headers>
