Google Docs Export
Step 1: Connect your Google Docs account
- Click on Connect Google account. This will be the account where your documents will be created and stored.
Step 2: Select type of action
Decide what content you want in your Google Doc. You have three options:
- Replicate original document: Choose this option if you want to create a .docx that maintains the original input's text, layout, and formatting.
- Create new document from Template: Select this if you have a predefined template and want to create a new document with variables like {{customer name}} replaced with actual data.
- Create new document: Use this option if you want to create a new document with extracted raw text, without any formatting.
Step 3: Select the Folder/File path
- Select the folder where the document should be created by clicking on the 'Select folder' input box. You can create a new folder if the path does not already exist.
- Provide a file name for the new document in the 'File Name' field. You can use the outputs from the model to construct the file name dynamically.
Step 4: Set up triggers for the export
Choose the condition that should trigger the export to Google Docs. This could be one of the following options:
- On inference - Google Doc is created as soon as the file is processed
- On all validations passing - Google Doc is created when all the approval/validation stages are passed
- On Approval - Google Doc is created only if the file is manually Approved
- On Assignment - Google Doc is created only if the file is assigned/un-assigned
Step 5: Test and Save
- Before finalizing the integration, use the 'Test this Action' feature to ensure that the documents are created correctly in your Google Docs account.
- Click on 'Add integration' to complete setup.
- Upload a new file in Extract data section to start automating!
