4. Paste the table ID into the variables node in your n8n flow.
5. Set up Bearer authentication in each HTTP Request node using your Extruct API token.
6. In the Google Sheets node, paste your template link and connect your Google account.
7. Run the flow once to reveal the mapping fields, then match each field to the correct column.
8. Activate the flow and add startups via the form.
