- An existing destination to send deliveries to. Refer to the destination setup guides for more information:

Google Sheets
Google Sheets
To finish setting up a Google Sheets destination:
- Connect your Google Drive account. Note: Grant Omni all requested permissions to ensure deliveries are successful.
- Use the link in the Spreadsheet section to browse for and select the Google Sheet workbook to send the delivery to.
-
Select a Write mode for the delivery:
- Overwrite the data on a sheet - Data in the sheet is overwritten on each successful delivery, including column headers
- Create a new sheet for each delivery - Creates a new sheet in the workbook for each successful delivery
- Append the data on a sheet - On every successful delivery, new results are added to the specified sheet starting with the first empty row.
Pivoted dataWrite mode options have a few considerations if you’re working with pivoted data:- If creating a new schedule and Omni detects pivoted data in the query, the Append option will be unavailable
- If editing a schedule and Omni detects that the query has changed to include pivoted data, it will change the write mode to Overwrite
-
Lastly, define the sheet name. The field that displays depends on the Write mode you selected:
- Overwrite or append - Enter the name of the sheet Omni should write data to in the Sheet name field. If Omni can’t find a sheet with this exact name, it will create a sheet.
- New sheet for each delivery - Enter a prefix for the sheet name in the New sheet name prefix field. A Unix timestamp of the delivery time will be appended to create the full sheet name:
{prefix}_{unixtimestamp}
