Set the Ashby trigger as “Application marked as Hired”

Once you have finished creating your playbook, the next step would be to begin with the first action. A playbook always starts with a trigger, which is responsible for detecting changes in your connected applications and responding accordingly.

Add the Ashby trigger to initiate your playbook's actions every time an application is marked as hired in Ashby. Click "Add trigger" in your playbook and choose "Application marked as Hired" from the dropdown menu under Ashby. This will allow your playbook to automatically identify newly hired applicants and trigger necessary actions.

If you still need to connect your Ashby account to Relay.app yet, a prompt will guide you through the process.

Add the "Add row to sheet" step in Google Sheets

Integrate the Google Sheets automation into your playbook to ensure the prompt addition of rows in Google Sheets every time an application is marked as hired in Ashby.

Click the "Add step" button, then locate the "Add row to sheet” automation for Google Sheets and input the mandatory and relevant details.

If your Google Sheets account still needs to be connected to Relay.app, you will be prompted to complete that connection. Make sure to allow the necessary permissions for Relay.app to sync with your Google Sheets account.

Activate your playbook

Activating your playbook is the last step in the process. Once you turn it on, it will automatically add a new row to a sheet in Google Sheets every time an application is marked as hired in Ashby without requiring manual intervention.

To activate your playbook, click the toggle button at the header. Before activating, we recommend performing a test run of your playbook to ensure all the steps work seamlessly together.
