Export Flutterwave Chargebacks Into a Google Sheet

The Scenario

The legal team sent a request on Tuesday: they need a full list of all Flutterwave chargebacks from the last quarter, grouped by status, with a total disputed amount per currency, for an audit response that goes out by Friday. You're the risk analyst. This is your ticket.

You've never pulled a chargeback report from Flutterwave before. The person who used to do it is no longer at the company. What you know: the data is somewhere in the dashboard, the export probably works, and Friday is three days away.

The bad version:

  • You find the Chargebacks section in the dashboard. The export gives you a CSV with 14 columns, of which you need 5.
  • You open it in Sheets, delete the nine columns you don't need, rename the headers to match the audit template legal sent you, and realize the "status" field uses values like "awaiting_bank_confirmation" rather than the simplified "pending" / "resolved" your template expects.
  • You write a lookup to normalize the statuses, realize there are two more status values you didn't account for, update the lookup, then manually calculate the totals per currency by inserting a SUMIF at the bottom.
  • You send a draft to legal. They come back with a question about a specific transaction reference that isn't matching their records. You have to go back into the dashboard and look it up manually.

It's Thursday evening.

The Easy Way: One Prompt in SheetXAI

SheetXAI is an AI agent that lives inside your Google Sheet. It reads your layout, pulls all Flutterwave chargeback records through its built-in integration, and writes them into the sheet with the columns you specify — no CSV cleanup, no status normalization by hand.

Fetch all Flutterwave chargebacks and write transaction reference, amount, currency, status, and created date into this sheet

What You Get

  • One row per chargeback: transaction reference, amount, currency, status, created date.
  • Statuses come through as returned by the Flutterwave API — you can ask for normalization in the same prompt.
  • The transaction reference column is full and searchable, so individual lookups don't require going back to the dashboard.
  • The data is ready for SUMIF or pivot table analysis immediately.

What If the Data Is Not Quite Ready

You need only chargebacks from the last 90 days

Pull all Flutterwave chargebacks from the last 90 days into this sheet and add a total disputed amount row at the bottom grouped by currency

You need to normalize the status values to simplified labels before the audit report goes out

Fetch all Flutterwave chargebacks and write transaction reference, amount, currency, created date, and raw status into columns A–E. In column F, write a simplified status: "pending" for any awaiting status, "resolved" for won or lost, and "other" for anything else.

Fetch all Flutterwave chargebacks from the last 90 days, sort by currency, write transaction reference, amount, currency, status, and created date into this sheet, and add a subtotal row for each currency group showing count and total disputed amount

Full audit package: filter by date, normalize statuses, group by currency, total by status, and flag high-value disputes

Fetch all Flutterwave chargebacks from 2025-01-01 to 2025-03-31. Write transaction reference, amount, currency, created date, and raw status into columns A–E. In column F, normalize status to "pending", "resolved", or "other". Sort by currency, add a subtotal row per currency group with total disputed amount, and flag any row where amount exceeds 500,000 NGN with "HIGH VALUE" in column G.

That's the complete audit-ready chargeback file from one prompt — the kind legal actually sends out on Friday without revision.
