Set the Harvest trigger as “Expense updated”

A playbook always starts with a trigger, which is responsible for detecting changes in your connected applications and responding accordingly.

Add the Harvest trigger to initiate your playbook's actions when an expense is updated. Click "Add trigger" in your playbook and choose "Expense updated" from the dropdown menu under Harvest.

If you still need to connect your Harvest account to Relay.app yet, a prompt will guide you through the process.

Add "Get row" and “Update row” step in Google Sheets

Integrate the Google Sheets automation into your playbook to ensure the prompt update of Google Sheets rows when expenses are updated in Harvest.

Click the "Add step" button, then locate the "Get row" and “Update row” automation for Google Sheets and input the mandatory and relevant details.

If your Google Sheets account still needs to be connected to Relay.app, you will be prompted to complete that connection. Make sure to allow the necessary permissions for Relay.app to sync with your Google Sheets account.

Activate your playbook

Activating your playbook is the last step in the process. Once you turn it on, it will automatically update Google Sheets rows when expenses are updated in Harvest without requiring manual intervention.

To activate your playbook, click the toggle button at the header. Before activating, we recommend performing a test run of your playbook to ensure all the steps work seamlessly together.
