Add new iOS Contacts to Google Sheets automatically
How this automation works
Record and email SwitchBot door or motion sensor events automatically. This Applet runs when your selected SwitchBot contact sensor detects an opening or motion activity and then sends an email and logs the details in a Google Sheet. Ideal for tracking home entry events or monitoring motion for family security, with full event history stored safely online. Customize the messages to fit your tone.
