Frequently asked questions

Does Duply read a private sheet directly?

Use the authenticated Google Sheets connection in Zapier or Make, then send only the required row fields to Duply.

How do I avoid duplicate generations?

Store a generated status or output URL in the row and filter out records that already have one.
