Keep shared spreadsheet copies aligned with the source.

Illustrative idea, not a published runnable template. Grunt is prelaunch; live service is paused and live provider connections and outcomes remain unverified. The steps, providers, and outcomes below describe a concept.

On a regular schedule, read the selected source spreadsheet and copy its rows into two destination spreadsheets with the same structure. This is a straightforward way to keep multiple working copies consistent with one maintained source.

Actual availability depends on published steps, supported connections, permissions, and provider approval.

What this workflow could do

Checks a selected source spreadsheet on a recurring schedule and copies its rows to two spreadsheets with a matching layout.

Review points proposed in this idea

Keep the source and destination structures aligned and decide whether each check replaces or adds records before relying on the copies. Confirm how repeated rows are handled.

Step 1 of 5

Read the source spreadsheet

Use the agreed source and worksheet as the authoritative set of rows for the scheduled check.

Proposed setup considerations

These are planning notes for the concept, not instructions for a currently available template.

  1. 01

    Prepare the source and destination sheets

    Choose one source and two destinations, and give each the same worksheet and column structure.

  2. 02

    Decide how each refresh treats existing rows

    Set whether a check replaces existing destination content or adds records, and prevent unintended duplication.

  3. 03

    Set the refresh cadence

    Use the intended two-minute schedule and confirm that it suits the volume and freshness needs of the data.

  4. 04

    Test all three spreadsheets

    Use a small sample to check that both destinations receive the expected unchanged rows.

Read the prelaunch status

Published templates and verified customer availability remain pending.
