This AI-powered n8n workflow connects OpenAI's chat capabilities directly to your spreadsheets, enabling natural language queries with contextual conversation memory. What This Workflow Does This automation creates a chat-based interface that intelligently queries your Google Sheets data using AI. When you ask a question, the workflow receives your message through the Chat Trigger, sends it to an OpenAI agent specifically instructed to consult your spreadsheet when relevant, and returns accurate answers based on your actual data. The system maintains conversation context by remembering the last 10 messages, allowing for follow-up questions and natural dialogue flow.
