Why Automate Lead Capture from Brevo to Google Sheets?

  • 👉 Real-Time Lead Logging
    Leads get auto-updated the second they sign up—no delays, no manual effort.

  • 👉 Single Source of Truth
    The Google Sheet becomes a real-time lead database, accessible to the entire team.

  • 👉 Error-Free Process
    Human errors and missed entries are eliminated.

  • 👉 Massive Time Savings
    More time is available to focus on closing deals, not copying emails.

  • 👉 Perfect for Scaling
    Whether handling 10 leads a day or 10,000, this process remains reliable.

Tools Required:

Step 1: Setup Google Sheet for Lead Logging

Create a Google Sheet with the following headers:

  • First Name

  • Last Name

  • Email Address

  • Phone Number

  • Source (e.g., “Brevo Form”)

  • Date Captured

💡 Pro Tip: Freeze the header row and use Google’s timestamp function to auto-record the capture time for extra tracking.

Step 2: Create a Webhook in n8n

  1. Login to n8n.

  2. Click + New Workflow.

  3. Add the Webhook Node.

    • Set the HTTP Method to POST

    • Name the webhook: brevoLeadCapture

    • Copy the generated Webhook URL

  4. Click Execute Workflow to start listening for incoming requests.

Step 3: Configure Brevo to Send Leads via Webhook

  1. Go to Brevo Dashboard → Contacts → Forms

  2. Select the lead capture form to automate.

  3. In the Form Settings, find the Webhook (or Post-Submission) section.

  4. Add the n8n Webhook URL created earlier.

  5. Map the form fields to send:

    • First Name

    • Last Name

    • Email

    • Phone Number

  6. Save the form.

🔥 Real Test:

Submit a dummy entry to the form to see if the webhook fires. If the n8n workflow is listening, the request will appear instantly.

Once the request is visible in n8n, the connection to Google Sheets is successfully established.

Step 4: Append Lead Data to Google Sheets

  1. After the Webhook node, add a Google Sheets Node in n8n.

  2. Authenticate the Google account.

  3. Select the prepared Google Sheet.

  4. Choose the operation: Append

  5. Map the incoming webhook fields to the sheet columns.

Example:

  • Webhook Field: email → Google Sheet Column: Email Address

  • Webhook Field: firstName → Google Sheet Column: First Name

  1. Save the workflow.

Step 5: Activate and Test the Workflow

  • Turn on the workflow in n8n.

  • Submit another test entry via the Brevo form.

  • Check the Google Sheet—if the lead appears instantly, the automation is correctly configured.

🎉 Automation Successful! Lead capture from Brevo to Google Sheets is now fully automated.

Bonus: Add Google Sheet Timestamp (Recommended)

For better tracking, configure n8n to auto-generate a timestamp using {{ $now }}.

  • In the Google Sheets node, add a new column for Date/Time and map it to {{ $now }} to capture the exact time of entry.

Optional Power-Up: Send Instant Notifications on Slack/Email

Add an additional Slack node or Email node to the n8n workflow to get real-time notifications when a new lead arrives.

This ensures the sales team can act on leads instantly without refreshing the sheet.
