Use Cases

Using the generated CSV file to populate form fields

The first use case is self-explanatory. By inserting Recordset fields in the forms configured to read the information from a CSV file, you can use the CSV files generated by the "CSV Generator" add-on to populate form fields.

Making data analysis with Google Sheet

This use case is less obvious than the previous one but just as important.

Google Sheet includes the IMPORTDATA operation
