Exporting your OopBuy data helps you analyze it offline, create custom reports, and collaborate with your team. This tutorial guides you through saving, sharing, and keeping your OopBuy Spreadsheet updated using Google Sheets integration.
Before You Begin
Ensure you have the following:
- An active OopBuy account with a populated spreadsheet.
- A Google account (Gmail) with access to Google Sheets.
- The data you wish to export is correctly formatted in your OopBuy dashboard.
