The Scenario
It's the end of the quarter and your head of content has asked for a review of everything published over the last three months. You open DotSimple — there are 200-plus posts across multiple accounts, some published, some still sitting in draft. The export button gives you a CSV that's missing the author column and cuts off at 100 rows.
The bad version:
- Open DotSimple, click through posts one page at a time, and manually copy post ID, snippet, status, and author into a Google Sheet row by row.
- Realize the built-in export stops at 100 rows and go back to get the rest, resetting your place in the list each time.
- Spend 90 minutes assembling a spreadsheet that's already incomplete before the first formula runs.
This is a review that's supposed to inform next quarter's content strategy. Showing up to that conversation with a half-built spreadsheet built from memory-and-paste isn't an option.
The Easy Way: One Prompt in SheetXAI
SheetXAI is an AI agent that runs inside your Google Sheet. It reads your sheet, connects to DotSimple through its built-in integration, and fetches the data you need — without a CSV download, without a manual copy loop, without a 90-minute setup.
Fetch all posts from my DotSimple workspace and write post ID, content snippet, status (published/draft), author, and created date into a new "Post Audit" sheet.
What You Get
- A new "Post Audit" sheet created automatically, with one row per post.
- Columns: Post ID, Content Snippet, Status, Author, Created Date — in the order you asked.
- All posts returned — published and draft — not just the first 100.
- If a post is missing an author field, that cell is left blank and the row is still written.
What If the Data Is Not Quite Ready
The content snippet is truncated at 50 characters and I need the full text
Fetch all posts from my DotSimple workspace and write the full post body (not truncated) into column B of the "Post Audit" sheet alongside post ID, status, author, and created date.
I only want posts from the last 90 days
Fetch all DotSimple posts created in the last 90 days and write post ID, content snippet, status, author, and created date into the "Q1 Audit" sheet. Leave out anything older.
I need to separate published posts from drafts into two tabs
Fetch all DotSimple posts and write published posts into a "Published" sheet and drafts into a "Drafts" sheet, with columns: post ID, content snippet, author, and created date.
Full cleanup + categorize + export in one shot
Fetch all DotSimple posts from the last 90 days. For any post where status is "draft" and created date is older than 60 days, mark it as "Stale Draft" in a new Status column. Then write all rows — including the stale draft flag — into the "Q1 Content Review" sheet sorted by created date descending.
The pattern: pull and categorize in a single prompt rather than exporting first and reformatting second.
