SheetChat: Ask Your Google Sheet Anything
SheetChat: Ask Your Google Sheet Anything ships as a ready-to-import n8n automation package: load the bundled workflow JSON, connect the credentials listed on this page, and activate it on self-hosted n8n or n8n Cloud.
Ask your spreadsheet a question in plain English and get a real, computed answer — filtered, grouped and totalled in code, so the AI can never invent the number.
- Answer plain-English questions about any Google Sheet tab straight from Telegram, with no formulas to write
- Ground every answer in a live profile of your real columns, so the AI stops inventing fields that do not exist
- Compute the arithmetic in code — filter, group, sum, average, rank — so the number in the reply is never the AI's guess
- Reject any plan that names a missing column or totals a non-numeric one, and say exactly which columns are available
- Cap every answer at a row limit you set so one careless question can never dump a 5,000-row sheet into a chat
- Show the method with every answer — the filters, grouping and metric used — so anyone can check the result
- Log every question, plan and outcome to a sheet you can mine for the report your team keeps asking for
Setup Service — optional live install and test. Choose your tier at checkout (not tied to this template's price).

Workflow summary
One workflow handles everything end-to-end.
- 1Someone asks a question about the spreadsheet in Telegram and gets an instant acknowledgement
- 2Checks the chat is on your allow-list and the question is short enough to answer
- 3Reads the tab and builds a profile of every column: its type, its range, and a sample of its values
- 4AI plans one aggregation against those real columns instead of reading the rows themselves
- 5A guard rejects any column that does not exist, any total on a non-numeric column, and caps how many rows come back
- 6Filters, groups and totals the rows in code so the arithmetic is never the AI's
- 7AI explains the result in plain English and the answer, a result table, and the method go back to the chat
- 8Logs every question, plan, row count and outcome to a Google Sheet you can mine for your team's real FAQ
