Merge multiple sheets into a new summary
spreadsheet
Productivity Activities
Last updated Oct 23, 2024
Merge multiple sheets into a new summary spreadsheet
Summary: Concatenate data from multiple sheets into one new Google spreadsheet. The initial data is not deleted.
Applications: Google Drive, Google Sheets
Description:
This examples explains how to create a workflow that gathers data from several Google spreadsheets and merges them into a new sheet, while preserving the initial data.
This example presents Google Workspace activities such as Add Sheet, For Each Sheet in Spreadsheet, Read Range, and Write Range.
Tip: If you want to save time, use the Merge Multiple
Sheets into a New Summary Spreadsheet template in Studio Web to build this workflow.
- Open Studio Web and create a new project.
- Add an Add Sheet
activity to your workflow. At this step, you want to add a new sheet, called
Summary, to a specific spreadsheet. In the activity:
- Set up your Google Sheets connection.
- In the Spreadsheet field, browse and choose the spreadsheet where you wish to create a new sheet.
- Set the Sheet name to Summary, for example. Choose any name that suits your usecase best.
- Next, add a For Each Sheet in
Spreadsheet activity, to iterate on the sheets you wish to merge. In the
activity:
- Select the same spreadsheet.
- In the Body of the
activity, add an If activity. Configure the activity as follows:
- Set the Condition for the iteration. Click the Plus icon to select Use variable.
- Set the condition as:
CurrentItemIndex=1
.
- Next, add an activity for the
Then branch of If. This is the activity to execute in case the
condition is true. Add a Read Range activity. Its
purpose is to use the first sheet headers in the Summary range and copy its
data. Configure it as follows:
- Select the spreadsheet.
- For the Range field,
click the Plus icon to select Use variable, then select
CurrentItem
. - Set the Has headers field to True.
- Set the What to read field to Values.
- Right after the Read Range
activity (still under the Then branch), add a Write Range
activity and configure it as follows:
- Select the same spreadsheet.
- For the Range field, click the Plus icon to select Use variable, then select the output variable of the Add sheet activity.
- Set the Include headers field to True.
- Set the How to write field to Overwrite.
- For the What to write
field, select the output variable of the Read Range activity.
- Add a Log Message activity to record that the first sheet
(
CurrentItem
) has been added to the Summary sheet (New sheet name
). This step is optional.- Configure the Message field as follows:
- Next, add another If
activity and set a condition that determines if the next sheets to be read are
different than the Summary sheet. At this step, we copy the other sheets,
excluding the headers.
- Configure the Condition
as follows:
CurrentItemIndex
variable greater than1
.
- Configure the Condition
as follows:
- Set the Then branch. Add a
Read
Range activity to read through the sheets in the spreadsheet:
- Select the spreadsheet.
- For the Range field,
select Use variable and choose the
CurrentItem
variable. - Set the Has headers field to True.
- Set the What to read
field to Values.
- Next, add a Write Range
activity, to write the data read into the Summary sheet.
- Select the spreadsheet.
- For the Range field,
select the
New sheet name
variable of the initial Add Sheet activity. - Set the Include Headers field to False.
- Set the How to write field to Append. To learn more about appending, see the activity's documentation.
- For the What to write
field, select the output variable of the Read Range activity.
- Next, add a Log Message activity, still under the Then branch,
to record that all the sheets have been appended into the Summary sheet. This
step is optional.
- You're done and ready to run your project!
