Automate the daily extraction of yesterday's Square sales across all locations, generate a CSV identical to Square's Sales Summary, and email it to managers via Gmail.
The AI agent connects to the Square API, retrieves all locations linked to the account, and pulls yesterday's completed orders for each location. It aggregates the data to produce a CSV that exactly matches Square's Sales Summary. It emails the CSV to managers or the finance team every morning for timely review.
Performs end-to-end report creation and distribution from Square data.
Connects to Square API using a header auth credential
Retrieves all active Square locations linked to the account
Pulls yesterday's completed orders for each location
Filters locations with zero sales to avoid empty reports
Aggregates data and creates a CSV identical to Square's Sales Summary
Sends the CSV via Gmail to the specified recipients
The AI agent replaces manual data pulls with a repeatable workflow that runs automatically each morning. It ensures accuracy by pulling yesterday's data across all locations, generating a report that mirrors Square's official Sales Summary.
A simple 3-step flow to produce and deliver the report.
Connect Square and Gmail credentials, and set the daily run time (e.g., 4:00 AM) to start automatically.
Retrieve all locations, pull yesterday's completed orders per location, and filter out locations with no sales.
Aggregate data into a CSV that matches Square's Sales Summary and email it via Gmail to the recipients.
A concrete scenario showing inputs, timing, and result.
Scenario: A multi-location retailer wants yesterday's Square sales CSV emailed to finance@company.com by 6:00 AM. The AI agent connects to Square and Gmail using configured credentials, runs at 4:00 AM daily, pulls data from all locations, aggregates the numbers into a CSV identical to Square's Sales Summary, and sends the file to the finance team.

Concrete scenarios where this AI agent adds value.
Common questions about this AI agent and its deployment.
You need a Square API credential (Header Auth) and a Gmail credential configured for sending emails. The Square credential should be scoped to read locations and orders, and the Gmail credential should permit sending emails to the intended recipients. The agent stores credentials securely using a vault and only uses them during scheduled runs. You can rotate credentials as needed and revoke access if required.
Yes. You can specify the recipient list in the setup, including multiple addresses. The subject and body can be customized; you can include a reference to yesterday's date and attach the generated CSV. Changes can be made in the automation configuration without editing code.
The daily trigger is configurable. You can adjust the time to your local timezone or switch to a different cadence (e.g., daily, Monday–Friday). If you change the time, ensure Square API rate limits and Gmail sending limits are respected.
If the Square API is unavailable, the agent will retry according to the retry policy and log the failure. It will notify you if the failure persists, and the latest successful run data will be preserved. You can manually trigger a run to catch up once the API is back online.
The agent uses HTTPS for API calls and stores credentials securely in a managed vault. Access is restricted to authorized users, and logs are scrubbed of sensitive data. If needed, you can enable additional encryption and rotate credentials periodically.
Yes. You can adjust which fields are included, the order of columns, and the CSV formatting to align with your accounting or data ingestion needs. Any changes apply to future runs once saved in the configuration.
Yes. Each run is timestamped and logged, including which locations were included and the recipients. The CSV is attached to the email, and you can export run histories for auditing. This makes it easy to verify delivery and data lineage.
