Set up the AppSheet environment quickly by creating or signing into a Google account, logging into Google Drive, and granting AppSheet the necessary permissions to access your data storage.
Download and open the reference material zip to access the mock data, including customers and sales Excel files, then follow along as we set up the AppSheet environment.
Create your first AppSheet app by preparing cloud data in a Google sheet or SQL database, then import mock customer data and load it into the app.
Create a Google Sheets-backed AppSheet app for a car garage to manage customer data. Add, view, edit, and delete records while exploring data, views, actions, and automations.
Explore the AppSheet development environment, previewing live apps on phone and laptop, switching between legacy and improved editors, and configuring data, views, actions, automations, and deployment.
Clarifies that the bottom right section is for simulating how different users—friends, coworkers, managers, and subordinates—view the app, not for emailing test applications.
Deploy and test your AppSheet app, then share it via browser and install links, and optionally publish to app stores with the paid core plan while managing access.
Always save after schema changes, then refresh the application to propagate updates. Not saving hides the updated display name, such as customer ID.
Modify data properties and types in AppSheet by setting human readable display names, turning fields into enums and dropdowns, and using enum lists and color types for robust validation.
Learn to implement data validation in AppSheet by setting column-level rules, using dynamic year checks, and displaying clear error messages that propagate to the app front end.
Add a new dataset from Google Sheets to the AppSheet project, import data, rename it car sales, and define fields like sale id and date to enable relationships with customers.
Create a new sales view for the car sales dataset, format the sale amount with currency and display names, and set up a reference to connect sales to customers.
Learn to create references in AppSheet to connect car customers and car sales, define many-to-one relationships, and use labels and virtual columns for rich lookups.
Configure a view in AppSheet by renaming the list, filtering with slices, choosing a deck/table/gallery/card view, and composing a primary header with a secondary header using a virtual column.
Explore detail view configurations in AppSheet, including header columns, card details, and sum of sales; customize column order, quick edit, display styles, max nested rows, and slideshow mode.
Configure form views in AppSheet by choosing page style, arranging column order, filtering visible fields, and enabling autosave to streamline editing and adding records.
Discover how charts in AppSheet act as views to visualize data, showing sum of sales by country or gender and guiding users through a filtered list of data.
Create interactive dashboards in AppSheet that combine multiple views—charts, lists, and details—into one page, enabling interactivity, filtering, and cascading lists for quick insights.
Learn how AppSheet actions automate navigation, data changes, and external communications, and build custom actions like emailing personalized coupons to customers with subject, body, and records-based data.
Learn how to populate new app forms by auto-generating sales ids and dates, using max plus one logic and today's date, then pre-fill fields with actions in AppSheet.
Explore AppSheet automations that trigger on data changes or schedules, create a new automation for new sales, and send emails or notifications with optional conditions.
Test and monitor a new AppSheet automation by creating a sale, triggering the workflow, and validating email alerts with sale ID, customer ID, date, and amount.
Add conditional steps in AppSheet automations by branching on a condition. Trigger on new sales, using a 10,000 threshold to route emails for big or small sales.
Set up AppSheet security by inviting users, enforcing sign-in, and choosing an authentication provider. Decide between a restricted app and a public app with domain authentication and optional encryption.
