Hi all. I'm new to this and looking for some guidance.

Spreadsheet 1 has all available items for sale. Let's say they're vehicles. So some columns may be, make, model, year, HP, etc. I'm trying to create another spreadsheet2 to act as a "wanted list" where if certain conditions are met, an alert will trigger. So if a salesperson goes into the wanted list, puts a potential buyer's name, Ford, Mustang, 2010 or newer, the system will alert them when we get a 2012 Ford Mustang that becomes available for sale. When I have Spreadsheet 2 with columns that would match up with those from the first spreadsheet, how do I build the automation for it to check to see if spreadsheet 1 has anything that meets those conditions, or similar conditions and then sends an email to the user who created it?

Thank you in advance for any help you may have!

Hmm, you could make an automation trigger when a new record gets created in Spreadsheet 1, and you'd do a "Find Record" action to look for all the records in Spreadsheet 2 that match, so it would look for "Year >= [Triggering record's year]" and such

You could then do a repeating group action that would send an email to each found record from Spreadsheet 2
