Last year we introduced conditional notifications in Google Sheets, which allow users to create custom rules in spreadsheets that send email notifications when certain criteria are met. Now we are expanding rule limits for conditional notifications from 10 to 20 rules per spreadsheet. For example, users can choose to be notified when a given task’s status changes or when they are added as an assignee. By expanding the rule limit per spreadsheet, users can take advantage of the feature more frequently and for a wider range of use cases.
Users can customize up to 20 rules that outline the criteria for when an email is sent
When rule conditions are met, recipients will receive emails informing them of the change
