Connect Streak to Google Sheets

You've got a lot of important data in your email, and you probably need to share at least some of it with other members of your team. But who wants to have someone else poking through their overstuffed inbox?

Instead, set up an automated workflow to export information from Streak into Google Sheets, where you and the rest of your team can use it more easily.

Storing information in Google Sheets makes it easier to track and store information you might want to share with your team outside of your Streak CRM. Need to share sales receipts with your accounting team? Drop the details in a Google Sheet. Want to send customer feedback to your product team? Automatically send it to your feedback spreadsheet. 

It also creates an automatic backup, just in case something happens in your Streak account. That way, you'll never have to worry about losing important customer data.

        Send notifications from Streak
