API AS A SOURCE
As it was requested on the community we are starting to introduce a new set of features that aims to empower Sheetgo to seamlessly connect with external data sources. Users can now easily pull in and incorporate external data using a JSON API, expanding Sheetgo connections capabilities and providing real-time access to valuable information from third-party sources. Currently, you can combine this option with the filter by condition to have an even more powerful use of Sheetgo. Check the documentation on how this feature works.
LEFT JOIN DATA PROCESSOR
We are introducing a new data processor that combines data from different sheets horizontally. This feature helps retrieve more insightful information by linking data using a common column with unique identifiers. Read the article of this feature can be used to its full potential.
FORMS
Our engineers have implemented many new features related to our forms, including:
- New configurations that were requested at the community: [phonenumber] and [regex]. You can check the full list of available form configurations in this article and learn how to build a custom validation field using regex with this article.
- We are also introducing two new configurations that will help users organize their forms more clearly, [pages] and [grouped], you can read about its functionalities in this article. With these new configurations, we are also implementing a primary key system for grouped field submissions. This primary key uniquely identifies and groups rows submitted together, ensuring data integrity and easier management of related submissions.
- Now, users can create a form and publish it only to a domain or a list of users. This valuable feature serves to facilitate the creation of private forms, effectively mitigating the risk of external submissions. Check the documentation to understand how to share your forms effectively.
BIGQUERY
Now, aside from using BigQuery as a source you can also use it as a destination, making it easier to combine Sheetgo data processors and features and easily upload them to your BigQuery table.
INVOICES
We’ve implemented the option for the user to choose to receive the invoice automatically when their subscription renews, learn here how to set this up.
