Analytics Studio doesn’t offer automatic export to Google Sheets, forcing you into manual downloads and uploads every time you need fresh data for public sharing.
Here’s how to create a fully automated pipeline from your Salesforce data to publicly shareable Google Sheets that updates without any manual work.
Automate Salesforce data exports using Coefficient
Coefficient eliminates the need for Analytics Studio entirely by providing automatic data sync from Salesforce to Google Sheets with built-in scheduling capabilities. This creates true “set and forget” automation for public sharing.
How to make it work
Step 1. Connect Coefficient to your Salesforce instance.
Install Coefficient and authorize your Salesforce connection. You can import data three ways: from existing Salesforce reports (maintains all report logic), from Objects & Fields (build custom queries), or custom SOQL queries for complex data requirements.
Step 2. Configure automatic export schedules.
Set refresh schedules for hourly intervals (1, 2, 4, or 8 hours), daily, or weekly updates. Choose specific days and times based on your timezone. Enable “Append New Data” to build historical datasets automatically without overwriting existing information.
Step 3. Set up public sharing.
Once data syncs to Google Sheets, use File > Share > Publish to web. Select your entire spreadsheet or specific ranges, choose automatic republishing when changes are made, then generate embeddable links or direct access URLs.
Step 4. Configure automation alerts.
Set up email or Slack alerts when data refreshes complete. Use Snapshots to create timestamped data archives and implement Formula Auto Fill Down for calculated metrics that persist through refreshes.
Step 5. Enable unrestricted public access.
Your published Google Sheets require no viewer authentication and support up to 10,000 rows per import. This gives you access to all Salesforce fields and custom objects, not just the limited columns available in Analytics Studio reports.
