Email connection and CSV import page for enriching rental data

CSV exports only tell half the story

Sharegrid CSV exports include transaction totals, but not per-item daily rates for multi-item bookings. Equipment images are missing. And if a booking included a discount or promo, the CSV does not always break it down clearly.

That missing data means your analytics are incomplete. You cannot see true per-item profitability for package rentals without manually looking up every confirmation email.

Rental IQ solves this by reading your Sharegrid confirmation emails directly and matching them to your imported transactions. The result is a complete, enriched record for every booking.


How it works

1

Connect your email account

Add your email credentials in settings. Rental IQ supports Gmail, Outlook, iCloud, Zoho, Fastmail, and any provider that supports standard email access. Credentials are encrypted at rest.

2

Rental IQ scans for Sharegrid emails

After connecting, Rental IQ searches your inbox for Sharegrid booking confirmation emails and matches them to your existing rental records by transaction ID.

3

Data is enriched automatically

Equipment images, per-item daily rates, and detailed fee breakdowns are extracted from the email content and attached to the matching rental record.

4

Your analytics get more accurate

With enriched data, per-item earnings, daily rate comparisons, and equipment images all become available across your dashboard.


What makes this different

No manual data entry

Instead of copying numbers from emails into spreadsheets, Rental IQ reads the emails and fills in the gaps automatically.

Per-item breakdowns for multi-item bookings

When a renter books three items together, the email connection extracts the individual daily rate for each item, not just the package total.

Equipment images from listings

Confirmation emails include links to your Sharegrid listings. Rental IQ pulls equipment photos so your inventory has images without manual uploads.

Encrypted and private

Email credentials are encrypted with AES-256 at rest. Rental IQ only reads Sharegrid-related emails. You can disconnect at any time and delete stored credentials.

Who it's for

Solo owner-operators

If you rent out a few items, the email connection saves you from manually tracking daily rates and looking up confirmation details every time you want to check your numbers.

High-volume renters

With frequent multi-item bookings, you need per-item breakdowns to know which gear is pulling its weight in a package. The email connection handles this automatically.

Rental houses

For rental houses processing dozens of bookings a month, manual data entry is not sustainable. The email connection keeps your records complete without adding to the workload.
