I am receiving daily reports that are in the form of Excel table in the body of the mail. Is there a way to automatically get that table and put it in a Google sheet?
I literally haven't tried anything as I don't know where to start.

In the past I used an add-on that allowed me to generate a google sheet corresponding to a google form response. However, the add-on that I was using has a limit to the number of documents that can be created, and I was hoping to find an alternative.
Is there another way to take each response I receive in the google form and then generate a google sheet?
Nowadays you can generate a Google Sheet with the Google Form's responses by clicking on View Responses in Sheets button while on the Responses tab:
This should generate a sheet like this:
You can also configure this behavior on this page:

I am trying to get a specific value from a public company's balance sheet into Google Spreadsheet to better analyze the company financials. I want to add the ticker in one of the cells and via a formula, I will get the Total Current Assets for example.
Is there a way to it?
The main issue is that the data is populated after the page is being rendered, so even if I use the IMPORTHTML and set the right XPath I am getting Imported content is empty. It because the value is since it is being fetched on the on a later script.
I found this service which provides the company's financials in a JSON and CSV formats, but I dont know how to parse it on the googlesheet.
Should be something that someone already solved.
Thanks
I am trying to find a way to link several google forms to one google sheet without separate tabs. I am creating a database so I want different employees to be responsible for different sections of the same spreadsheet.
You need to use "IMPORTRANGE". I had to do that recently. https://support.google.com/docs/answer/3093340?hl=en You have to tell the receiving sheet what range of the feeder sheets to import and then give permission.The trick is, if someone adds columns to a feeder sheet, you have to make sure the data is not "overlapping" in the receiving sheet. Otherwise, you'll get an error.
I am making an app that will allow users to send data to a google spreadsheet. The app is an order form that has different fields for the items and names etc, then they user will be able to go back to the app and enter their order number and view weather or not the order is complete or not.
With other systems I have been able to simply use a URL that contained the data that was being sent the service, although Google spreadsheets does not seem to have that, I have been playing around with the script editor and thought I could use that to do something of that nature but could not figure it out.
So here is what I want to do, user submits data and that data is logged then the spreadsheet creates a new order number for that data line entry and returns it the device. What is the simplest way to send data to a Google spreadsheet? I have looked at their Drive API for iOS but I am using swift and they're guides are partially in swift and Objective-C; it's just a mess and I can't even get their example code to run.
A colleague of mine is a small builder here in London. He works all over town. He uses many different suppliers.
Most suppliers send him their sales invoice via email when he buys something.
My friend could set up a gmail address to be used only by suppliers. But could emails sent to it be "automagically" processed and their contents inserted into a google spreadsheet ?
What is the relative practicality of what I've outlined ?

So, your query finally boils down to two questions:
Save PDF attachments from Inbox to Google Drive
Parse PDFs and store the data into google spreadsheet
Save PDF attachments
This can be easily achieved by processing the attachments from the emails and storing them google drive. This link will help you achieve the same. Kindly go through the script provided in the sheet for better understanding.
Parse PDF attachments
After storing the PDFs in google drive, you could easily retrieve the content via Document Class using method getBlob or getBody as per your requirement and store in google spreadsheets.
Yesterday I've used mailpareser to parse an order email and create a google spreadsheet raw for each line item in the order. So this is now automatic.
I've found this question with google so it's still relevent.
