Creating New Spreadsheets

If you need to create a completely new spreadsheet and populate it with content, you won't be able to use the standard "add row" or "write row" steps because Relay.app won't know in advance which column headers are in the Sheet (which are required for new steps that add rows).

But we have dedicated features that make it really easy to create entirely new spreadsheets and tabs!

1. Write list to new spreadsheet

2. Write list to new tab

For example, suppose you have an AI step that produces a list of items, and for each item it includes a company name and website URL, and you want to create a complete spreadsheet with that information.

You can use the Write list to new spreadsheet automation to do so.

Here's a simple example workflow that generates a list of competitors in a spreadhseet:

First, the AI step produces a list of companies.

AI step to produce a list of companies with key information about each.

Second, the write list to new spreadsheet step will turn those into a spreadsheet.

Writing a list to the spreadsheet.

After this workflow is run, you'll get the following Sheet:
