Get notified when shared Google Sheets are viewed (with identity and context)

Share your Google Sheet through Send to get instant alerts on opens and re‑opens, including who viewed, where, device, and total time. Route notifications to Slack, email, or your CRM so you can follow up right when interest spikes, and use AI Chat and Suggested Questions to answer common questions without another meeting.

When this is useful

Native Sheets sharing provides limited signal and no guided answers. Send layers identity capture, AI guidance, and webhooks so you respond faster with better context.

• Pricing models and ROI calculators
• Forecasts, plans, and trackers shared externally
• Any Sheet where you want identity and engagement context

Step‑by‑step: set up Google Sheets view notifications

These steps keep setup simple and outcome‑focused.

1. Add the Sheet to Send
2. Configure link settings and alerts
3. Route events to your tools

Why this is faster with Send

You don’t just get a view count—you see identity and engagement, plus AI handles questions in‑page. Your timing and message improve.

• Instant alerts on opens and re‑opens
• Analytics show who viewed, location, device, and total time
• AI Chat and Suggested Questions reduce back‑and‑forth

Troubleshooting & tips

• Not receiving alerts? Verify the Webhook toggle and destination URL, and send a test event from Webhooks.
• Low engagement? Add Suggested Questions like "Assumptions?", "Pricing?", or "Next steps," and mention “there’s AI chat inside” when sharing.
• Sensitive Sheets? Disable download/print and use a viewer gate (Name and Email, optionally Phone). Replace files under the same link to keep one URL.

Integrations & automation (webhooks)

• Triggers: Document open and Any link open
• Destinations: Clay, Zapier, Make for CRM updates, tasks, and alerts
• Useful fields: viewer name, email, phone (if gated), location, device, total time

Privacy and controls

• Require name, email, or phone; optionally hide content until provided
• Disable download/print when needed
• Replace files under the same link so your URL never changes
• Use personalized links with a custom slug for known recipients
