Connect FluentCRM and Google Sheets

FluentCRM keeps your contacts inside WordPress, while partners, sales staff and accountants often live in Google Sheets. FlowMattic moves contacts both ways: new CRM contacts become rows, new rows become contacts, and changes on one side update the other. It suits list owners who want a shareable copy of the CRM or an easy way in.

1. TriggerNew Contact Created

When FluentCRM fires New Contact Created, FlowMattic runs Add New Row in Google Sheets with the data from that event.

FluentCRM and Google Sheets workflows you can build

Each one uses only triggers and actions the two integrations ship today, plus FlowMattic's own tools. Where the library has a ready-made template, import it instead of building from scratch.

Back up each new FluentCRM contact to a sheet

Every contact created in the CRM gets a row with name, email, status and source, giving you a copy outside WordPress that a teammate can read.

Turn new rows into FluentCRM contacts

Event staff, partners or a sales assistant add people to a shared sheet, and each row is created or updated as a FluentCRM contact without a CSV import.

Refresh a contact's row when the record changes

Look the email up in the sheet and update that row whenever the contact is edited, so the shared copy shows today's phone number and status.

Tag contacts by editing a column in the sheet

Sales types Customer or VIP into a Tier column. The workflow finds the contact by the row's email and adds the matching tag in FluentCRM.

Set up: new contacts backed up to a sheet

At the end, each contact created in FluentCRM is copied into your Google Sheet as a new row.

  1. Add the header row

    Create a sheet with columns such as First name, Last name, Email, Status, Lists and Created.

  2. Connect Google Sheets

    Under Connects in FlowMattic, add a Google Sheets connection that can edit the spreadsheet. FluentCRM is already on your site.

  3. Use New Contact Created

    Start a workflow with this FluentCRM trigger and add a test contact so its fields are captured.

  4. Write the row

    Add Add New Row, choose the spreadsheet and tab, map each contact field to a column, test and switch the workflow on.

Triggers and actions in this pair

A trigger starts a workflow. An action is something FlowMattic does in the app as a step.

Good to know

  • Create or Update Contact matches on email, so a row whose email already exists updates that contact rather than adding a second one.
  • In the campaign example, the Delay gives readers time to open and click before Get Contacts Who Clicked Email builds the list.
  • If you import from a sheet and also back up to one, use different spreadsheets so a new row does not loop back as a new contact.
  • Custom fields depend on your own FluentCRM setup, so add matching columns before mapping them.

Why run this pair with FlowMattic

FluentCRM and Google Sheets connect through FlowMattic on your own site, with no separate automation account in the middle and no charge per run.

Your list stays in WordPress

FluentCRM is the source of truth on your own site. The sheet is a copy you control, and data reaches Google from your server only.

Imports without file uploads

Rows become contacts as they are added, so you skip exporting CSVs from one tool and mapping them in another.

Large lists cost the same

Runs are unlimited, so syncing tens of thousands of contacts needs no bigger plan.

Common questions

Can I import an existing sheet into FluentCRM all at once?

Yes. Start with Schedule, read the rows with Get Row Data, loop with Iterator and run Create or Update Contact for each. Run it once, or weekly if the sheet keeps growing.

Will duplicate emails create duplicate contacts?

No. Create or Update Contact updates the existing contact when the email already exists, so you can run a sheet through more than once.

Can I add new contacts to a list or sequence from the sheet?

Yes. After Create or Update Contact, add Add Lists to Contact or Add Subscriber to Sequence and map the list or sequence from a column if it varies.

Can I export a segment to Google Sheets?

Yes. Use Get Contact by Segment on a Schedule, loop with Iterator and write each contact with Add New Row, or clear the tab first if you want a fresh copy each time.

Which Google account should I connect?

Any account that can edit the spreadsheet, personal or Google Workspace. Share the sheet with your team the way you already do.
