Catalog All Available Baserow Templates Into a Google Sheet

The Scenario

You're an operations consultant mid-engagement with a 30-person company that just decided to adopt Baserow for their project tracking. Your client wants to see what's available before committing to building from scratch, and they've asked for a spreadsheet they can share with two department heads before the decision call Friday.

You have Baserow credentials. You have a blank Google Sheet. You've never needed to catalog Baserow's template library before, and you're not about to click through the UI one template at a time and manually type names and descriptions into cells.

The bad version:

  • Open the Baserow template gallery, click the first template, read the name and category, type them into the sheet, go back
  • Click the next template, realize you're not sure whether to record the workspace ID from the URL or from a separate metadata field, make a guess, continue
  • Finish thirty templates, discover there are two more pages you didn't see, go back and add them, then notice the category column is inconsistent because you abbreviated "Project Management" in six rows and spelled it out in four others

A consultant who has a decision call on Friday and two stakeholders waiting for a structured comparison doc cannot spend ninety minutes in a template gallery playing data-entry clerk. That time belongs to the analysis, not the collection.

The Easy Way: One Prompt in SheetXAI

SheetXAI is an AI agent that lives inside your Google Sheet. It reads the sheet and calls Baserow to fetch the full template library — then writes it out in whatever structure you need.

Fetch all Baserow templates and write template name, category, description, and workspace ID into my sheet — one row per template

What You Get

  • Column A: template name
  • Column B: category
  • Column C: description
  • Column D: workspace ID
  • One row per template, covering the full library — no manual pagination, no clicking through gallery pages

What If the Data Is Not Quite Ready

I need the results sorted by category so stakeholders can scan by department

Fetch all Baserow templates and write template name, category, description, and workspace ID to my sheet — sorted by category alphabetically, then by template name within each category

I only want templates in specific categories relevant to my client

Fetch all Baserow templates and filter to only those in the "Project Management" or "CRM" categories — write name, category, description, and workspace ID to the sheet, one row per template

The sheet already has headers and I need to preserve formatting

My sheet has formatted headers in row 1: Template Name, Category, Description, Workspace ID — fetch all Baserow templates and write the data starting at row 2, leaving the header row untouched

Full fetch + filter + stakeholder summary in one shot

Fetch all Baserow templates. Filter to categories relevant to project tracking and CRM. Write template name, category, and description to columns A, B, C — sorted by category. Then add a summary block below the table listing how many templates exist in each category.

The pattern is to let the prompt do the organizing — category filtering, sorting, and summarizing in a single request rather than fetching first and reformatting afterward.

Try It

Open a blank Google Sheet you'll use as the template evaluation doc, then get the 7-day free trial of SheetXAI and ask it to pull the full Baserow template library sorted by category. For auditing the form fields inside an existing Baserow workspace, see the form configuration audit spoke. The Baserow integration overview has the full breakdown of all four methods.
