Airtable to Google Sheets

What it is

Airtable to Google Sheets is an add-on listed on the Google Workspace Marketplace. It pulls Airtable records into Google Sheets: you pick a base, a table or a view, and the data flows into your spreadsheet. The company's pitch is that you can forget manual exports.

It is built for people who keep their records in Airtable but do their reporting, sharing and number work in Sheets: freelancers with a handful of tables, operations and marketing teams, and anyone whose colleagues would rather open a spreadsheet than learn Airtable. It is made by UpSys, which describes itself as a Google Workspace integration studio, and the footer credits UpSys Consulting.

What you build and how

You do not build an app here. You build a live copy of an Airtable base inside a Google Sheet, and what you do with it afterward happens in Sheets.

Setup is 3 steps, which the company says take about 2 minutes. Install the add-on from the Marketplace into any Google Sheet, sign in with Airtable OAuth, then pick a base, table or view. There is no coding and, in the company's words, no IT tickets. Records then land in the sheet, and the company says its servers never see them: data flows directly between Airtable and Google Sheets through their official APIs, and OAuth tokens are encrypted in Google's PropertiesService.

The sync modes are the core of the product. Manual sync runs on demand on every plan. Scheduled sync refreshes every 3 hours on Pro and Business. Two-way sync, where your sheet edits go back to Airtable as you make them, is on Business. The home page describes the range as "Manual to live" and says you pick the refresh rate on each sync. You also choose what lands in the sheet: a view, the exact fields you want, and whether to bring read-only formulas and rollups along.

Several details protect a sheet you have already built. Airtable field IDs sit in a protected row, so renaming a field in Airtable does not break the sync. You can add your own columns next to the Airtable data and, per the company, your formulas survive every sync. The add-on writes to its own dedicated sheet tab, so your existing data stays untouched.

All Airtable field types are supported. The FAQ lists text, numbers, dates, checkboxes, single and multi-select, linked records, attachments, collaborators, formulas, rollups and lookups, and says each type has a dedicated transformer that renders values correctly in Sheets. The home page's examples include linked records, rollups, formulas and attachments.

Once the data is in Sheets, the page proposes building pivot tables, charts and dashboards on top of live Airtable data. That is the whole point: Airtable stays the source of truth and Sheets becomes the reporting layer. This also makes the add-on a small automation, because it replaces the cycle of exporting, downloading and pasting with a scheduled job.

The direction is a per-sync setting too. One-way keeps the sheet a clean copy of Airtable; two-way pushes your sheet edits back. On Business the frequency can also be set to live, which the page describes as syncing the moment a record changes in Airtable, so the 3 frequencies are manual, scheduled every 3 hours and live. The demo grid on the home page shows how broad the field coverage is meant to be: besides the basics it renders phone numbers, currency, percent, duration, rating, autonumber, barcode, button, created and modified times and users, an AI text field and a sync source field, each as a readable value in its own column.

UpSys also lists related projects in the footer: ClickUp to Sheets, Save to ClickUp, Client Glance and ClickUp Templates.

The evidence from the pages

The pricing section lists 3 plans, with a toggle for monthly or yearly billing and a note that yearly saves 2 months.

• Starter, $9 a month billed monthly, for freelancers and solo operators who need a few tables. It covers up to 3 tables or views, all Airtable field types and manual sync on demand.
• Pro, $19 a month billed monthly, for teams that need unlimited syncs and scheduled updates. It has unlimited tables and views, scheduled syncs every 3 hours and priority support.
• Business, $39 a month billed monthly, for teams that edit in Google Sheets and push those changes back to Airtable. It has unlimited tables and views, scheduled syncs, priority support and two-way sync.

Every plan starts with a 7-day trial and no credit card, checkout runs through Stripe, and there is a 30-day money-back guarantee with no questions asked. The site says pricing is per add-on user: you pay for people who run or edit syncs, and everyone else uses the sheet for free. For more seats it points you to support.

On scale and credibility, UpSys lists 20k+ installs across its Google Workspace add-ons, 100+ teams helped across 30+ companies, and a 30% average increase in team delivery capacity. Those are UpSys claims about its work in general, not about this one add-on. The FAQ says support usually replies in a few hours.

The refund promise is spelled out in the FAQ: if the add-on "isn't saving you time within the first month, we'll refund you in full." Checkout is described as cancel anytime. The privacy pitch is equally direct. The page says record data never passes through the company's servers and adds, "We literally cannot see it." For help, the product menu lists a setup guide, a changelog and a support center alongside the blog.

Who it suits and who it does not

It suits a team that already lives in Airtable and wants colleagues, clients or a finance person to see current data in Sheets without an Airtable seat. A freelancer on Starter with up to 3 tables or views can run it cheaply. A team that edits in Sheets and wants those edits back in Airtable has a single, clearly named plan for that, Business at $39 a month.

It is narrow by design. It handles one pair, Airtable into Google Sheets, so it will not connect Airtable to any other app. Scheduled refreshes run every 3 hours, and two-way sync is only on the top plan, so if you need frequent unattended updates or write-back you pay for Business. Pricing is per add-on user, so a large group that all runs syncs adds up. And because it lives inside Sheets, it assumes your team already works in Google Workspace.
