Zapier will unload all the available tables and offer to choose which one it needs to pull data from. After that, we select the sheet and set the trigger column by changing which we will cause the event.

Next, we connect to Facebook and (if we don’t have one) create/select a page where our posts will be published. This all takes place inside the Zapier interface.

Next, we select our page for publishing. In the “Message” field, we select the Google Sheets data column from which we want to receive data. In our case, this column is called “Message”. We do the same with the “Link URL” field if we want to add a link to some resource from our document. For this purpose, we have created the “Additional URLs” column. Click “Test action” and proceed to our Facebook page.

As we can see, the trigger worked successfully.

Select our page for publishing. In the "Message" field, we select the Google Sheets data column. We do the same with the "Link URL"

Important. The test trigger sends the post in a moment, and if you add new data to the table, the FB post will be created within 4-5 minutes.
