Cancel subscriptions by flagging rows
You flag a customer for cancellation in your sheet (via conditional format). Notis ends their Stripe subscription automatically.
Trigger
Conditional Format Rule Changed
Triggers when conditional formatting rules change in a Google Spreadsheet. Detects when rules are added, updated, or removed. Uses snapshot-based diffing to detect changes between polls.
Action
Cancel subscription
Cancels a customer's active stripe subscription at the end of the current billing period, with options to invoice immediately for metered usage and prorate charges for unused time.
Why this helps
Managing subscription cancellations across multiple customers requires manual Stripe action per customer. Flagging them in a sheet is easier, but the manual Stripe step is still tedious.
- Subscription cancellations happen instantly when you flag a customer
- No manual Stripe cancellation steps
- Consistent policy enforcement
- One source of truth for churn decisions
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Create or update your customer sheet with a status column (e.g., Active, Churn)
- 2Set up conditional formatting to highlight rows when status changes to Churn
- 3Connect Google Sheets and Stripe to Notis
- 4Create the automation: 'When a row is highlighted by conditional formatting, cancel that customer's subscription in Stripe'
- 5Select the trigger: Conditional Format Rule Changed
- 6Test by formatting a row and confirming the subscription is canceled in Stripe
Questions about this workflow
Can I prorate the cancellation?
Yes. Include prorating instructions in your prompt: 'Cancel at the end of the billing period and prorate unused time'.
What if I change my mind?
Notis logs each cancellation. Remove the conditional formatting and Notis will alert you; you can manually reinstate if needed.
Does this work for multiple subscriptions per customer?
Notis will cancel all active subscriptions for that customer. If you need selective cancellation, add a subscription ID column.

Supported Triggers and Actions
Notis builds workflows that link Google Sheets to Stripe. A trigger fires from one place; an action lands in another.
Google Sheets triggers
Stripe actions
Aggregate Metric Changed
Triggers when an aggregate metric (SUM/COUNT/AVG/MIN/MAX) changes in a Google Sheets spreadsheet. This trigger monitors an aggregate calculation on a target column (optionally filtered by a search column/value) and fires when the calculated result changes.
Cancel subscription
Cancels a customer's active stripe subscription at the end of the current billing period, with options to invoice immediately for metered usage and prorate charges for unused time.
Cell Range Values Changed
Triggers when values in a specified A1 range change in Google Sheets. This trigger monitors a specific cell or range of cells and fires when any values change.
Confirm payment intent
Confirms a stripe paymentintent to finalize a payment; a `return url` is necessary if the payment method requires customer redirection.
Conditional Format Rule Changed
Triggers when conditional formatting rules change in a Google Spreadsheet. Detects when rules are added, updated, or removed. Uses snapshot-based diffing to detect changes between polls.
Create Customer
Creates a new customer in stripe, required for creating charges or subscriptions; an email is highly recommended for customer communications.
Data Validation Rule Changed
Triggers when data validation rules change (added/updated/removed) in a Google Spreadsheet. Uses snapshot-based diffing to detect changes between polls.
Create an invoice
Creates a new draft stripe invoice for a customer; use to revise an existing invoice, bill for a specific subscription (which must belong to the customer), or apply detailed customizations.
Developer Metadata Changed
Triggers when developer metadata entries change (new/updated/removed) in a Google Spreadsheet. Uses snapshot-based diffing to detect changes between polls.
Create payment intent
Creates a stripe paymentintent to initiate and process a customer's payment; using `application fee amount` for a connected account requires the `stripe-account` header.
Filtered Range Values Changed
Polling trigger that monitors Google Sheets filtered ranges for value changes. Uses snapshot-based diffing to detect when values matching a data filter change. Emits the matched values when changes are detected.
Create a price
Creates a new stripe price for a product, defining its charges (one-time or recurring) and billing scheme; requires either an existing `product` id or `product data`.
New Rows in Google Sheet
Simple polling trigger that monitors Google Sheets for new rows. Detects when new rows are added and returns the complete row data. Perfect for triggering any workflow based on new sheet entries.
Create product
Creates a new product in stripe, encoding the request as `application/x-www-form-urlencoded` by flattening nested structures.
New Sheet Added in Google Spreadsheet
Polling trigger that detects when a new sheet is added to a Google Spreadsheet.
Create Refund
Creates a full or partial refund in stripe, targeting either a specific charge id or a payment intent id.
