FAQs
Yes. Connect ThoughtMetric’s AI Connector and the Google Drive connector to Claude, then create a scheduled task describing the report you want, such as weekly ROAS by campaign. Claude pulls the data from ThoughtMetric and updates the sheet on the cadence you choose.
Which Claude plans include scheduled tasks?
Scheduled tasks are available on all paid Claude plans, including Pro, Max, Team, and Enterprise. On Team and Enterprise plans, an admin controls whether Cowork is turned on.
Does my computer need to be on for a scheduled report to run?
No. Scheduled tasks run remotely, so the report updates even when your computer is asleep or the Claude Desktop app is closed. Tasks that rely on local files or apps are the exception and only run on your computer.
How often can a scheduled task run?
A scheduled task can run hourly, daily, weekly, or on weekdays. You can also run it on demand whenever you want a fresh pull.
Can I edit or pause a scheduled report?
Yes. From the Scheduled page in Claude, you can edit the task’s instructions or cadence, pause and resume it, run it on demand, or delete it.
Can team members without ThoughtMetric access see the data?
Yes. Anyone with access to the Google Sheet can see the report, which is useful for finance, operations, or leadership teams that prefer a spreadsheet.
