Introducing the ability to loop over a list of items in Workspace Studio
We are introducing the ability to loop over a list of items in Google Workspace Studio flows, bringing more power and flexibility to your everyday workflows. As part of this, the Ask Gemini step has a new configuration section called Response format where you can decide if the output of the step should be in text or list format. When list format is selected, the new step Repeat for each can be used so that the flow can loop over the items of that list.
The Repeat for each step can also be used to loop over Google Sheet data row by row and run substeps.

This improvement unlocks new possibilities for many use cases, including:
- Create a task for each action item based on meeting notes.
- Draft an email for each sales lead based on your sales tracker Google Sheet.

Google has officially rolled out the “Repeat for each” step in Google Workspace Studio, introducing native looping capabilities to AI automation flows. This upgrade removes the limitation of processing single entries, allowing no-code AI agents to dynamically iterate over arrays, bulk lists, and spreadsheets row by row. [1, 2]
Key Mechanics of the Update
- New Response Format Section: The
Ask Geministep now features a Response format toggle. Users can specify if an output should be generated as traditional text or structured as a list. [1] - The “Repeat for each” Step: When a list format is active, this core step handles looping operations natively. The flow cycles through each item in the list sequentially and executes designated substeps for every entry. [1]
- Google Sheets Row Integration: Beyond AI-generated lists, the
Repeat for eachfunction hooks into Google Sheets data natively. It can read spreadsheets row by row to trigger data updates or external communications automatically. [1, 2]
High-Impact Use Cases
- Action Item Tracking: Scan unstructured meeting notes via Gemini, compile a list of action items, and loop through them to generate separate tasks for each stakeholder. [1]
- Mass Personalised Outreach: Parse a sales tracker in Google Sheets row by row to pull unique client attributes and draft heavily contextualized emails for each individual lead. [1, 2]
- Dynamic Document & Triage Workflows: Iterate through multiple file attachments, email logs, or form submissions to run conditional AI judgments—like categorisation or summary updates—on each item individually. [1, 2, 3]
You can build and experiment with these looping capabilities directly inside your automation environment by navigating to the official Google Workspace Studio dashboard.
