Google launched Workday for Google Sheets as a new Workspace Marketplace add-on. It connects Workday Adaptive Planning directly to Google Sheets. The add-on uses Workday’s Ask Workday AI to provide natural-language summaries and variance analysis. It also flags anomalies and generates charts from custom queries. Users can pull live Adaptive Planning data into Sheets and refresh it at any time. Admins must enable the feature in Adaptive Planning and install the add-on for users. The add-on is available now to all Google Workspace customers and personal account holders.
