To link a JotForm timesheet to Google Sheets, you can automate the process using the Make platform by setting up a scenario that integrates JotForm and Google Sheets modules. Here’s a step-by-step breakdown on how to accomplish this:
- Set Up the JotForm Watch for Submissions Module:
• Use the “Watch for Submissions” trigger to detect new submissions on your JotForm. When a user submits the form, this module collects the data from the form.
• In your scenario, make sure that the fields you want to map from JotForm (e.g., time entries, names) are correctly set up to flow into Google Sheets .
- Create Google Sheets Add Row Module:
• After receiving the submission data from JotForm, set up a module in the Make scenario that adds a new row to your Google Sheets. The data from the form, such as the timesheet information, can be directly mapped to the relevant columns in your Google Sheets .
- Test the Automation:
• Submit a few test entries in JotForm to check if they are accurately being reflected in Google Sheets. If your Google Sheets isn’t updating, ensure that the module connections (e.g., JotForm webhook or Google Sheets connection) are correctly set up .
Expanding This Automation:
You can further expand this scenario by adding conditional logic or additional modules. For example:
• Send Notification Emails: After adding the data to Google Sheets, use a module to send an automatic email notification.
• File Upload Handling: If your timesheet form includes file uploads, you can map the file upload URL into your Google Sheets using the correct mapping setup .
