Introduction

Sheetsu allows you connect Google Sheets to anything - Web, Mobile, IoT or any service's API. 

MoEngage <> Sheetsu

The MoEngage and Sheetsu integration allows you to read and write data to your Google spreadsheet.

Use cases

1. You have a spreadsheet with different campaign message for different users with slight tweaks. You can want to send the exact message (from this spreadsheet) to your users. Using the integration, you can reference the spreadsheet from the MoEngage campaigns to send right messages to your users. 

2. You have some attributes are very specific to a campaign that needs to be send out. This is just a one-time campaign, so you don't want to store these details on MoEngage. You can simply add these attributes to a google spreadsheet. Now reference the sheet using MoEngage content APIs. 

3. You want to keep updating (in near real time) a spreadsheet to keep track of users who perform a specific action on MoEngage. Using the integration, you can set up your sheetsu spreadsheet endpoints in a MoEngage connector campaign.

1. Fetch details from a spreadsheet at the run time and use them in your MoEngage campaigns using Content APIs.
