Re-engage upcoming appointments: Google Sheets & MySQL

Runs on a schedule across Google Sheets, MySQL and Slack, walks the list in batches, pausing between them, then rolls the rows up into a few numbers. Built for inbox triage, around a "Read Pending Queue (Google Sheets)" step, in 22 documented nodes.

Re-engage upcoming appointments with MySQL and Google Sheets in real time. An original, ready-to-import n8n workflow built around the 'Reminders & Follow-ups' pattern for marketing & advertising. It runs on a schedule and orchestrates 22 nodes across Google Sheets, MySQL, Slack. Retry-on-fail is enabled on external calls. Import the JSON, add your credentials, and adapt the parameters. The result is a hands-off process that just works.

Key benefits

  • Keeps Google Sheets and MySQL in step for inbox triage, without anyone re-typing a row
  • A failed Google Sheets or MySQL call is retried rather than dropped, at any of the 22 nodes in this inbox-triage build
  • The pause before Google Sheets is durable — a inbox-triage run survives a restart
  • Batches the work so Google Sheets rate limits never break a inbox-triage run
  • Every inbox-triage run leaves an audit row behind, alongside Google Sheets

Use cases

  • Teams keeping Google Sheets and MySQL aligned by hand for inbox triage
  • Inbox triage sequences that run over days and must survive a restart before Google Sheets
  • A backlog too large to push into Google Sheets in one pass, across 22 nodes
  • Inbox triage work where "Read Pending Queue (Google Sheets)" is still a manual step before Google Sheets

From download to running in 3 steps

  1. 1
    Import. In n8n, open Workflows → menu → “Import from File” and pick the downloaded JSON.
  2. 2
    Connect. Add your own credentials on the app nodes - n8n highlights exactly which ones need them.
  3. 3
    Activate. Run it once to test, then toggle Active. The automation is live.

What you'll learn

Production level

Production-grade: idempotency, dead-letter handling, and reconciliation included.

  • Scheduling time-based follow-ups that survive restarts
  • Computing due dates and windows from timestamps
  • Exiting the sequence when the task is already done

Every node carries its own documentation on the canvas, plus notes explaining why the architecture was built this way, a credential setup guide, troubleshooting, and three practice exercises. Sample data comes pinned to the trigger, so you can hit Execute and watch data flow before connecting a single account.

Common questions

What exactly do I get?

The complete, ready-to-import n8n workflow as a JSON file, delivered instantly after payment. Import it into your own n8n (cloud or self-hosted), add your credentials, and it runs.

How do I import it into n8n?

In n8n, open Workflows, click the three-dot menu, choose “Import from File”, and select the downloaded JSON. Then connect your own app credentials on the highlighted nodes.

Do I need anything else for it to work?

You need your own n8n instance and accounts/credentials for the apps this workflow connects to (Google Sheets, MySQL, Slack, HTTP / REST API). No coding is required.

What if it doesn't work for me?

If the file is faulty, won't import, or isn't as described, contact us within 7 days and we'll fix it or refund you - see our refund policy.

Can I modify or resell it?

You can freely adapt and use it in your own or your clients' projects. Reselling or redistributing the template file itself is not permitted.
