Can i do a mail merge from google sheets

Yes, you can do a mail merge from Google Sheets using a few different methods. Here are a few options:

Method 1: Using Google Sheets' built-in "Mail Merge" feature

Google Sheets has a built-in "Mail Merge" feature that allows you to merge data from your sheet with a template to create individualized emails. To use this feature:

1. Open your Google Sheet and select the data range you want to use for the mail merge.
2. Go to the "Tools" menu and select "Mail Merge".
3. Choose the email template you want to use (or create a new one).
4. Map the data columns in your sheet to the corresponding fields in the email template.
5. Click "Merge" to create the individualized emails.

Method 2: Using Google Apps Script

You can also use Google Apps Script to create a mail merge from Google Sheets. Here's an example script:

1. Open your Google Sheet and go to the "Tools" menu.
2. Select "Script editor" to open the Google Apps Script editor.
3. Create a new script by clicking on the "Create" button.
4. Paste the following code into the script editor:

   
   function mailMerge() {
   var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet();
   var dataRange = sheet.getDataRange();
   var data = dataRange.getValues();
   var template = "Your email template here";
   var subject = "Your email subject here";

for (var i = 0; i < data.length; i++) { var row = data[i]; var email = row[0]; // Assuming the first column is the email address var name = row[1]; // Assuming the second column is the name var message = template.replace("{{name}}", name); MailApp.sendEmail(email, subject, message); } }

5. Replace the placeholders (`"Your email template here"` and `"Your email subject here"`) with your actual email template and subject.
6. Save the script by clicking on the "Save" button.
7. Run the script by clicking on the "Run" button or by using the keyboard shortcut `Ctrl+Enter`.

**Method 3: Using a third-party add-on**

There are also several third-party add-ons available that allow you to do mail merges from Google Sheets. Some popular options include:

* AutoCrat: A popular add-on that allows you to create custom email templates and merge data from your sheet.
* Mail Merge: A simple add-on that allows you to merge data from your sheet with a template to create individualized emails.
* DocRpt: A powerful add-on that allows you to create custom reports and merge data from your sheet.

These add-ons often offer more features and customization options than the built-in "Mail Merge" feature or the Google Apps Script method. However, they may also require a subscription or a one-time payment.
