How to connect Intelliminds to Google Sheets

Keep a configured spreadsheet updated with article content, publishing state, SEO fields, links, images, and keyword research data.

Google Sheets publishing uses an Intelliminds-managed service account and a configured sheet structure; it is not a general two-way spreadsheet sync.

How the Google Sheets integration works

The spreadsheet publisher finds or creates the matching article row and updates recognized columns in the configured worksheet.

01
Prepare the sheet
Use the expected article and keyword headers and share the workbook with the configured service account.
02
Connect the worksheet
Set the spreadsheet identifier and target worksheet name for the Intelliminds integration.
03
Export workflow data
Writing and publishing actions update the matching row rather than appending uncontrolled duplicates.

What you can do with Intelliminds and Google Sheets

What moves between the tools

The integration writes a defined article and keyword schema into Google Sheets.

Article fields: Keyword, post type, title, slug, Markdown, HTML, additional context, and meta description.
Workflow state: Status, created time, written state, published state, and article link.
Images: Available cover-image references for downstream use.
Keyword metrics: Keyword, volume, difficulty, and relevance in the Keywords worksheet when configured.

2Add the required recognized headers without renaming them.
3Share the sheet with the Intelliminds service account through the approved setup path.
4Configure the spreadsheet ID and worksheet name, then export one test article.

Popular ways to use the Google Sheets integration

Editorial handoffs

Give editors or clients a familiar table containing article copy, links, status, and metadata.

External workflow bridges

Let a reviewed spreadsheet feed another approved operational or publishing process.

Keyword reporting

Keep selected keyword metrics visible next to the broader content-production workflow.

Common Google Sheets integration checks

The worksheet is not found

Check the spreadsheet ID, exact worksheet name, and service-account sharing permissions.

Columns stay blank

Compare the sheet headers with the recognized schema; unsupported or renamed columns are not populated.

A row was not updated

Confirm the expected keyword or title identity exists and that the worksheet is using the supported header row.

Google Sheets integration questions

Is this a Google Sheets integration?

Yes. The catalog calls it a spreadsheet publisher, and the current implementation writes to Google Sheets through the Google Sheets and Drive APIs.

Can Intelliminds write both Markdown and HTML?

Yes, when the corresponding recognized columns are present in the configured article worksheet.

Does the sheet automatically become a website?

No. It is an export and workflow destination. Any downstream publishing step is a separate system.
