Instructions

Automate Date Formatting and Spreadsheet Entry

Simplify your workflow by automatically formatting dates and adding them as new entries to your spreadsheet. This template is perfect for keeping your records organized and readable without any manual work.

Trigger Event

New Data Input

This workflow starts when a new date-time value is received. It's usually triggered by receiving data from a form submission or another system that supplies a date and time.

Actions

1. Format Date for Readability

The workflow first takes the incoming date-time and transforms it into an easy-to-read format. For example, instead of getting a technical date like 2025-09-11T16:56:16Z, you'll get a friendly version like September 11th 2025, 4:56:16 pm. This makes your records much clearer for future reference.

2. Add Formatted Date to Spreadsheet

Next, the newly formatted date is automatically added to your chosen Google Sheet. Along with other relevant information (like name and email), the formatted date gets recorded in a new row, ensuring your list stays up-to-date effortlessly.

Benefits

  • Saves time by eliminating manual date formatting and data entry
  • Keeps your spreadsheets organized and always readable
  • Ideal for attendance records, sign-up sheets, and other log-keeping needs
