The Scenario
It's the week before the quarterly business review and the VP of Product just asked you to pull a clean list of every planned and in-progress feature into a slide deck. You're the product ops manager. You know Productboard has everything — feature name, status, owner, timeframe, parent component — but the only export available is a flat CSV that doesn't include all the fields, doesn't sort the way the deck needs it, and strips out the component hierarchy.
The bad version:
- Export the Productboard CSV. Open it in Sheets. Realize the "Owner" column is missing. Go back, find the owner data isn't in the CSV export at all.
- Manually look up owners for the 40 most important features by clicking through each one in Productboard.
- Build the formatted table at midnight, then get an email at 7 AM saying two features changed status yesterday and need to be updated before the 9 AM meeting.
A QBR slide has been wrong before because the data was stale by 18 hours. The cost of that isn't just embarrassment — it's the meeting that gets called to discuss the discrepancy instead of the roadmap.
The Easy Way: One Prompt in SheetXAI
SheetXAI is an AI agent that lives inside your Google Sheet. It reads your sheet and pulls live data from Productboard through its built-in integration. Open the SheetXAI sidebar and ask for exactly what you need.
List all Productboard features with status "planned" or "in-progress" and write each feature's name, status, owner, timeframe, and parent component into this sheet starting at row 2
What You Get
- Every planned and in-progress feature written as a row, one feature per row.
- Columns populated: feature name, status, owner (email or display name), timeframe label, parent component name.
- The list reflects the current state in Productboard at the moment you run the prompt — no stale CSV.
- If a feature has no owner assigned, SheetXAI writes "unassigned" rather than leaving the cell blank.
What If the Data Is Not Quite Ready
You only want features from one specific product area
List all Productboard features with status "planned" or "in-progress" where the parent component name contains "Payments" and write name, status, owner, and timeframe into this sheet starting at row 2
You want to group by release rather than status
Export all Productboard features assigned to a release, grouped by release name — write release name in column A, feature name in column B, status in column C, and owner in column D. Leave a blank row between each release group.
The timeframes use internal IDs and you need human-readable labels
List all Productboard timeframe definitions and write the timeframe ID and label into Sheet2. Then use those labels when pulling features into Sheet1 column D instead of the raw timeframe ID.
The full pull-and-format chain for a QBR deck
Fetch all Productboard features with status "planned" or "in-progress". Write them into this sheet sorted first by parent component name A to Z, then by timeframe earliest first, then by feature name A to Z. Columns: component in A, feature name in B, status in C, owner in D, timeframe in E. Bold the header row.
One prompt, sorted and formatted, ready to copy into the deck.
