I have a simple ZAP with a slightly unique demand in it.
Goal: ‘Add New Item to Monday Board’ when ‘New Spreadsheet Row is Added to Google Sheets’
It is single column spreadsheet (automatically pasted), and it will commonly have DUPLICATED and that is the issue. I would only want UNIQUE rows to paste.
Example:
Missing Files:
a
b
a
a
b
c
Output I hope for:
a
b
c
