Google Sheets Reader not triggering

Hi team. I can’t figure out how to make the flow trigger (similiar to a zap) when a new row is added in google sheets.

So far I have to click ‘run’ to make it trigger. When I do that, it only scrapes the first lead/link in the reader and not all of them.

See the workflow here:

Hey @Jonas — Just to confirm, when you activate the node as a trigger (as shown in the screenshot), adding a new row to your spreadsheet currently doesn’t trigger a run, correct? And you’re checking these runs either on the History Page or through the “Previous Runs” tab on the canvas, right?

Previous Runs Tab:

If the above is correct, could you please try the following steps:

  • Disable the Google Sheets trigger and save your workflow.
  • After saving, you’ll notice the trigger disappears from the panel at the top right.
  • Delete the Google Sheets node, then add it back again from the node library.
  • Enable the trigger again and wait for about 2–3 minutes for it to fully activate.
  • Then, test by adding a new row to your spreadsheet and check if the runs appear in the History Page.

For your testing scenario, by default, the trigger picks only the first new row added if the trigger is enabled. If you want to run the workflow on all existing rows, disable the trigger temporarily and run a batch run instead.

Additionally, I recommend checking out Subflows to simplify your workflow and reduce the need for multiple flatten-list nodes:

Let me know if this makes sense and works for you :slightly_smiling_face:

Hi Wasay,

I am facing the same issue my google sheet trigger was working correctly 2 days ago and now it has stopped triggering workflow.

I have tried revoking and adding tokens back. I have also tried removing and adding the trigger again and replacing sheet with a new one.
