Look Up SendFox Contact Details by ID Into a Google Sheet

The Scenario

Your support ticket system flagged 60 SendFox contact IDs as part of a billing dispute investigation. Someone on the customer success team needs to know the current email address, subscription status, and which lists each contact belongs to — before a call with the affected users tomorrow morning. The IDs are in column A of a shared Google Sheet. The call is at 9 AM.

The bad version:

  • Open SendFox, search for the first contact ID, note the email, status, and list memberships in a cell next to it.
  • Close, open the next ID, repeat.
  • Realize by contact 20 that list membership information requires an extra click into a separate tab per contact.
  • Arrive at contact 60 an hour later, having accumulated a column of data that's probably accurate but definitely tedious.

The call is at 9 AM. The data collection should have taken five minutes.

The Easy Way: One Prompt in SheetXAI

SheetXAI is an AI agent that lives inside your Google Sheet. It reads the contact IDs in column A, fetches the full record for each one from SendFox, and writes the enriched details into the adjacent columns — ready for whoever runs the call.

For each contact ID in column A, fetch the full contact details from SendFox and write their email, first name, last name, and subscription status into columns B through E.

What You Get

  • Columns B through E filled in for every contact ID in column A: email, first name, last name, subscription status.
  • Any contact ID that returns an error from SendFox gets the error written in column B so you know which records to investigate separately.
  • A complete enriched table ready for the customer success team without any manual lookup work.
  • Reusable for any future batch where you need to hydrate a column of contact IDs.

What If the Data Is Not Quite Ready

You also need which lists each contact belongs to

For each contact ID in column A, fetch email, first name, last name, subscription status, and list membership names from SendFox — write them into columns B through F. If a contact belongs to multiple lists, write them comma-separated in column F.

Some IDs in column A may be invalid or deleted contacts

For each contact ID in column A, attempt to fetch the contact from SendFox. If found, write email, first name, last name, and status into columns B through E. If the contact is not found or the ID is invalid, write "NOT FOUND" in column B and leave C through E blank.

You want to add a timestamp of when the lookup was run

For each contact ID in column A, fetch email, first name, last name, and status from SendFox — write into columns B through E. Write today's date into column F for every row that returned a result.

Full enrichment and anomaly flag in one pass

For each contact ID in column A: fetch email, first name, last name, status, and list memberships from SendFox. Write them into columns B through F. In column G, write "FLAG" if the contact's status is "unsubscribed" or if they have no list memberships. Write the total number of flagged contacts into cell H1.

The pattern: retrieve, enrich, and annotate in a single prompt — so the table arrives ready for analysis rather than requiring a second review pass.
