Paste and convert unformatted text into Google Sheets tables with Gemini

We're excited to introduce a new AI-powered feature in Google Sheets that allows you to transform unstructured text into organized tables.

Manually formatting and organizing unformatted data in spreadsheets can be a tedious, time-consuming task. Now, when you paste content like bulleted lists, freeform text, or JSON we surface a “Convert to table” button which leverages Gemini to turn your pasted content into a table with just a single click. This helps to streamline data entry so you can move to analysis faster.

Getting started

• **Admins: **This feature is an additional entry point to existing AI table generation functionality. This feature will be hidden if the Smart features for Google Workspace setting is disabled. Visit the Help Center to learn more about setting smart features controls on or off for users.
• End users: You must have Workspace smart features enabled to use this feature. This feature will be ON by default for eligible users. To use it, simply paste text into a Sheet; if the content is suitable, a "Convert to Table" prompt will appear. Visit the Help Center to learn more about collaborating with Gemini in Google Sheets.
