If the code is _nvalid, the workflow keeps the user in a verification loop until a valid code is entered.\n\nOnce a **valid code is provided**, the workflow proceeds to the final step, where **additional information** can be collected.\n\nAll e**ntered data and intermediate states** are securely **stored in the Google Sheet**.\n\n### Structure of the GoogleSheet\n\nFirstname | Lastname | Email | Company | Verification-Code | Verified | Intended Use\nMarcel | Claus-Ahrens | foo[at]bar| foobar | abc123 | TRUE | Just testing\n\n### Setup\n\n1. Set Up a Google Sheet: Create a Google Sheet with the specified columns, or customize them to suit your needs.\n2.
