By automating the transfer of information from Airtable to Google Sheets, teams can ensure that they always have the latest data at their fingertips without the need for manual updates or checks.
Here's how the automation works:
- Step 1: Schedule the automation - The playbook is triggered by a scheduled event, which you can set according to your needs. It will activate daily at your specified time to begin the data transfer process.
- Step 2: Retrieve data from Airtable - Bardeen fetches all the values from your specified Airtable table, preparing them for transfer to Google Sheets.
- Step 3: Clear Google Sheets - Before the new data is added, the existing content in your Google Sheet is cleared, ensuring that only the most current data is present.
- Step 4: Copy the data to Google Sheets - Finally, the playbook appends the freshly retrieved data from Airtable into your Google Sheet, providing you with an updated spreadsheet ready for use.

Let’s set it up!
Step 1: Set up the automation
Click the “Try it” button at the top of this page to get this Autobook saved.
You will be redirected to download the browser extension when you run it for the first time. Bardeen will also prompt you to integrate Google Sheets and Airtable.
Bardeen will then prompt you to enter the Airtable that you want to export to Google Sheets, the Google Sheets spreadsheet that will contain the exported information, and the execution time for the automation. The autobook will run every day at the execution time that you specified.
Step 2: Run the automation to copy an Airtable to Google Sheets every day
Make sure the automation is activated (toggled on).
Every day, at your specified time, the automation will find your Airtable.
It will then find your Google Sheet, clear all the data and copy all the information from your Airtable, resulting in a match between the two databases.
Important: The automation will not append the information to the Sheet. It will delete all the data in the Sheet and copy all the information from your Airtable.
You can also edit the playbook and add your next action to further customize the automation.
