Hey @Rosewebstudio,  
Thank you for the IFTTT info, but did not exactly find what I was looking for.

May be you can help with the explanation below:

1. I am taking text as input from a user. The text gets stored in Google Sheet.
2. Now I want to use this text and make an external API call (something like reddit / wiki) to retrieve additional data and info.
3. This data gets stored in another field of the sheet.

I was thinking of doing step2 above using IFTTT. Is it possible? Any recommendations would be of immense help.

Thank you!
