Can Claygent Interpret Open Google Sheets for Sector Information?

Β·

Can Claygent look up an open gSheet/table and interpret it well? e.g. a list of 20 sectors with info alongside, the idea being "find the matching sector to /sector in this table and grab the info" - reliably?

    For looking up and matching data from Google Sheets, you should use the dedicated Google Sheets integration rather than Claygent. The Google Sheets "Lookup Row" action is specifically designed for this purpose and will be more reliable than using Claygent.You can use the Lookup Row action to: ** Search for specific rows based on column and value matches ** Work with any Google Sheet you have read access to (including public sheets) * Retrieve targeted data efficientlyClaygent, on the other hand, is better suited for scraping unstructured web data and performing AI-based tasks, rather than structured data lookups from spreadsheets.

    I have tried this but in my use case it is not finding the matches.... which is really weird, I have copy/pasted them... "No Rows Found" against my first or second column in the gSheet

    Ok Tanvi R. - just fyi I am using sheets lookup rows successfully with LinkedIn URLs in other places, I am familiar with it. But this one is odd as it should be finding the copy/pasted details. Happy to share the gsheet with you by email if it can help, it’s public access.
