This automation scenario allows you to connect Google Contacts and Google Sheets
It can be build using Ifttt, a no-code workflow automation tool. Ifttt allows you to create automated scripts using a simple drag-and-drop interface for non-technical users. This is a ready-made scenario, but it can be customized by adding more apps, actions, filters or branches.

Google Contacts and Google Sheets can also be integrated using automation tools other than ifttt:
When this trigger fires in Google Contacts
This Trigger fires every time a Google Contact is added to a group.
Then this action happens in Google Sheets
This action will update a single cell in the first worksheet of a spreadsheet you specify. Note: a new spreadsheet is created if the file doesn't exist.
This guide contains information on how to set up an automatic workflow that allows to test.
Part I
First, we need to connect Google Contacts and Google Sheets to IFTTT.

Then set up an Action for Google Sheets
Choose this action: Update cell in spreadsheet (This action will update a single cell in the first worksheet of a spreadsheet you specify. Note: a new spreadsheet is created if the file doesn't exist.).
Part III
Finally, we need to test this automation and publish it.
Customize data flow
Configure the data that is exchanged between Google Contacts and Google Sheets.
Test the workflow and turn it on for production use
Test your scenario and publish to production. Now you have an automatic workflow, that will test!
