Step-by-Step Guide

How to connect Google Sheets to Intercom

Follow these steps to set up your integration. The entire process takes under 5 minutes.

What you'll need

  • An active Google Sheets account
  • An active Intercom account with permission to install apps
  • A free Arahi AI account (sign up takes 30 seconds)
1

Create your Arahi AI account

Sign up at app.arahi.ai — it's free and takes 30 seconds. No credit card required. You'll land on the dashboard where you can create your first workflow.

2

Authenticate Google Sheets

Click "Add Connection" and select Google Sheets from the app directory. You'll be redirected to Google Sheets's authorization page. Grant Arahi access to your workspaces, databases, pages, and tasks. You select which workspaces the integration can read and write to.

3

Authenticate Intercom

Same process for Intercom. Click "Add Connection," select Intercom, and authorize access. Grant Arahi permission to read and post messages in your selected channels. You control which channels the integration can access.

4

Choose your trigger

Select what event starts the workflow. For this integration, popular triggers include: new item created in google sheets or new message received in intercom. The trigger fires automatically whenever that event happens — no manual intervention.

5

Configure the action

Define what happens when the trigger fires. For example: send message in intercom. Map the data fields between Google Sheets and Intercom so the right information lands in the right place.

6

Test and activate

Run a test to confirm data flows correctly between Google Sheets and Intercom. Check that the fields map as expected, then toggle the workflow on. It runs 24/7 from here — Arahi handles retries, error logging, and monitoring automatically.

Everything you need to know about connecting Google Sheets and Intercom.

How do I connect Google Sheets to Intercom?

Sign up for a free Arahi AI account, then click "Add Connection" to authenticate both Google Sheets and Intercom via OAuth. Choose a workflow template — like syncing productivity events to communication actions — customize the field mapping, and activate. The entire setup takes under 5 minutes.

What can I automate between Google Sheets and Intercom?

You can also trigger custom workflows from specific Intercom keywords.

Arahi AI includes 100 free actions per month on the Starter plan — enough for most small teams. If your Google Sheets-to-Intercom workflows need more volume, paid plans start at $29/month with unlimited workflows and priority execution.

Is my Google Sheets data secure when connected to Intercom?

Yes. Arahi uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication — we never store your Google Sheets or Intercom passwords. All data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256). Your productivity data is only accessed when a workflow runs, and you can revoke access at any time from your Arahi dashboard.

Can I sync data both ways between Google Sheets and Intercom?

Yes. You can set up workflows that trigger from either Google Sheets or Intercom. For example, create a workflow where Google Sheets events update Intercom, and a separate one where Intercom changes sync back to Google Sheets. Each direction is configured independently so you have full control.

Do I need technical skills to connect Google Sheets and Intercom?

No coding is required. Arahi's visual workflow builder lets you configure triggers, actions, and field mapping with clicks. If you can use Google Sheets and Intercom, you can set up the integration. Most users are running their first workflow within 10 minutes.
