How does this automation work?
With Bardeen's automation, you can effortlessly save all your currently opened browser tabs to Google Sheets. This playbook is an excellent tool for managing research, tracking digital activities, and improving productivity. It simplifies the task of keeping track of your online work, especially when you're juggling multiple tabs. Here is how this workflow works:
- Get tabs: This command fetches all the currently opened tabs in your browser.
- Convert tabs to a table: The tab details obtained from the previous step are transformed into a table format, preparing the data for Google Sheets.
- Add tabs to Google Sheets: The tab details, now in table format, are added to your Google Sheets. You will need to specify the Google Sheet where the data should be stored. Google Sheets is a powerful tool for data manipulation and analysis.
How to run the playbook
Find yourself constantly drowning in a sea of tabs? You’re not alone.
30% of the participants in a recent study admitted that they had tab hoarding problems. According to the research, each time we close a tab, we get a slight feeling of “missing out on something.”
Not anymore!
You can use this automation to save and organize your opened browser tabs in a Google Sheets spreadsheet. That way, you always have access to your favorite tab combinations. No fear of losing links.
Many of us have perfect tab combinations for activities like work, entertainment, and daily browsing. Create separate Google Sheets spreadsheets for each (or use the multi-select property with tags), and the next time you find yourself staring at an empty browser page, you’ll have access to your favorite tabs in just a few seconds.
Let’s set it up!
