New to automation with Zapier? You're not alone. Here are some answers to common questions about how Zapier works with Google Sheets and Motion

Can I automatically update my Motion tasks from Google Sheets?

Yes, you can set up a trigger in Google Sheets that automatically updates or adds a new task in Motion whenever changes are made to your spreadsheet. This integration helps keep your workflow seamless by ensuring all data is synchronized between the two applications.

How do I trigger actions in Google Sheets based on Motion tasks?

You can configure our integration to perform actions in Google Sheets, such as updating a cell or adding a new row, whenever specific events occur in Motion. For instance, when a task is marked complete in Motion, a corresponding update can be made directly in your Google Sheet.
