To create your first check open the Check Sheet app from one your spreadsheets as described in Getting Started.
You can then edit one of the example checks we've provided or click the green Add Check
at the bottom of the app. If you have already created a check in this spreadsheet you'll see a green Add
button at the top of your list of checks.
You'll then be presented with a blank form as shown below that allows you to enter the details of your check.
A check is made up of the following properties:
Name: The name of your check, this will be shown in notifications
Sheet: The sheet which contains the data you want to check
Range: The single cell or range of multiple cells you want to check, specified in A1 notation
When: The set of cells that must match if the range contains multiple, not visible for single cell ranges
Is: The condition condition that must be met for your check
Value: The value you expect your condition to match against, it can be one of these types and isn't visible for some conditions
A check can have many notifications which have the following properties:
For: For checks that contain a range of multiple cells this controls whether a notification will be sent for just the first match this is found or for every new match.
Send: The type of notification to send
Target: The location the notification should be sent to, it can either be a static value such as an email address or a dynamic target i.e. a value retrieved from your spreadsheet
