Enhancing Google Sheets with Claygent for Secure Data Analysis

Clay fam! Stoked on the sheets integration. This is literally great timing with client reviews on the horizon for me and my team. Looking to test out a theory — I have a bunch of data that I host in google sheets (big query write back to sheets to be precise) Any functions or hacks to get claygent securely into that dataset to analyze the data and provide summaries/generate visuals (Claude models currently in use)? I suppose I could use a public link but some clients are public companies and need to keep datasets secure.

    Unfortunately, Claygent doesn't have direct integration with Google Sheets for analyzing private datasets or generating visuals. However, we do have a Google Sheets integration that allows you to sync data between Clay and Google Sheets. For your use case, you could: 1. Use the Google Sheets integration to import your data into Clay. 2. Once in Clay, use Claygent to analyze the data and provide summaries. 3. Export the results back to Google Sheets if needed. This approach keeps your data secure within your Clay account and Google Sheets. For more detailed steps on setting up the Google Sheets integration, you can refer to our documentation. What specific type of analysis or summaries are you looking to generate from your dataset?

    btw i have found appscripts to be more convenient in terms of pulling in data, analyzing and then pushing back generated data to sheets you can deploy an appscript as a web app too so that allows you to then call it via http api

    We don't have a direct integration between Google App Scripts and Claygent. However, you can use a combination of our Google Sheets integration and webhooks to achieve a similar workflow: 1. Use our Google Sheets integration to sync data from Sheets to Clay. 2. Process and analyze the data within Clay using Claygent. 3. Send the results back to Google Sheets using our HTTP API integration. For a more automated approach, you can set up a Google App Script to periodically send data to Clay via a webhook. This works well with passthrough tables for high-volume data processing. If you need further assistance with setting this up, please request human support by clicking "Talk to a person" in this chat.
