Integrating RingCentral with Google Sheets

There are several methods to integrate RingCentral with Google Sheets, enabling users to automate their workflows and enhance productivity. Whether through Zapier's vast array of integrations or by leveraging the RingCentral API, these integrations can streamline communication tasks such as logging calls and sending messages directly from Google Sheets.

Via Zapier Automations

Using Zapier, a user can create automated workflows, known as Zaps, between RingCentral and Google Sheets. These Zaps consist of triggers—such as new missed calls or messages in RingCentral—that lead to actions like creating new rows or logging data in Google Sheets. Example Zaps include archiving ended calls, sending SMS messages for new rows added to a sheet, and logging RingCentral communications in spreadsheet form.

Using RingCentral API

The RingCentral API for Google Sheets allows for deeper integration between the two services. Users can automate workflows, such as sending and logging SMS/MMS messages, logging ended calls, or creating multiple rows for new or updated calls, all within Google Sheets. This integration is particularly useful for managing various RingCentral services like voice, video, and team collaboration, through a spreadsheet interface.

With Google Apps Script

For users with scripting knowledge, Google Apps Script provides a more customized way to connect RingCentral to Google Sheets. This method can be used to build integrations that trigger on spreadsheet updates or new row additions, further expanding the possibilities for automated workflows between the two platforms.

Alternative: Using Sourcetable

An alternative to direct integration or using APIs is to leverage Sourcetable, a platform that syncs live data from almost any app or database, including RingCentral. This can simplify the process for users looking to integrate various data sources with Google Sheets without setting up individual Zaps or custom scripts.
