Google Docs

Create and edit documents in Google Docs. In Appbricx, your workflows and server functions call it by name once it is connected.

What you can do

6 actions, each one call from a workflow or a server function. Triggers come from your app: a row changing, a schedule or a webhook.

Set it up

About two minutes, once per project or once for the whole workspace.

  1. Open Integrations in the builder

    Backend panel, Integrations tab, then Google Docs. To connect it for every project, use Workspace settings, Integrations.

  2. Sign in to Google Docs

    You sign in to Google Docs and approve access. Appbricx keeps the tokens, encrypted, and refreshes them.

    • https://www.googleapis.com/auth/documents

    This uses an OAuth app: the platform's, or your own from the admin panel, and you can bring your own credentials.

  3. Call an action

    From a workflow, by integration id and action name. The call answers with success, output and, when it fails, the reason.

    Workflow
    // .workflow.js (native ctx)
    export async function run(ctx) {
      const res = await ctx.integrations.invoke("google_docs", "append_text", {
        "text": "<text to append>",
        "documentId": "<document id>"
      });
      if (!res.success) throw new Error(res.error);
      ctx.log.info("Google Docs answered", { output: res.output });
    }

Connect Google Docs once. Every workflow can use it.
