Make (ex-Integromat) allows you to establish connections between your Processes and thousands of other web services, enabling seamless automation and data flow between different platforms.
The Make’s connections called Scenarios and usually consists of a Trigger and other actions.
Trigger collects the required information and sends it to other apps in the Scenario.
Certain applications that are integrated with Make offer both triggers and actions, while others provide either triggers or actions.
Plumsail Documents includes a trigger Watch Finished Process.
And two actions: Start Document Generation Process and Make an API Call.
In Make, you have the ability to create customized documents using data from numerous applications. Let’s check an example of creating an invitation when a new event is added to the Microsoft 365 calendar.
When a new event is added to your Microsoft 365 Calendar, Make starts Plumsail documents generation process and creates an invitation from a DOCX template.
This scenario has the following structure:
Trigger: Watch events in Microsoft 365 Calendar.
Action: Plumsail Start Documents Generation Process.
We use a Microsoft trigger called Watch events in Microsoft 365 Calendar.
It’s checking new events in the Microsoft 365 Calendar and starts the scenario once new event is added.
The trigger has some settings that help to adjust it for specific calendars and events.
The next step is adding an action. If you’re using the Plumsail actions for the first time you’ll need to sign in to your Plumsail Account from Make.
We use Start Document generation process action and select a process that creates an invitation from a DOCX template.
Then apply values from the Microsoft 365 Calendar trigger to populate the DOCX template.
Plumsail Processes provides many delivery options but you can also add a delivery action to your scenario and attach the result invitation: Plumsail Documents action returns an URL of the generated document.
These are some other examples of Make and Plumsail integration.
Create documents from online database
This scenario works when a new record is added to an online database, for example, Airtable.
Trigger: AirTable Watch Records
Action: Plumsail Start Documents Generation Process.
Generate documents with data collected from a form
Let’s say you have a Google form with some questions. Collect the data and generate a new document with this.
Trigger: Google Forms Watch Responses
Action: Plumsail Start Documents Generation Process
Generate documents when an item is created in a SharePoint list
When a new item is added to a SharePoint list start the document generation process with the item’s data.
Trigger: Microsoft SharePoint Online Watch items
Action: Plumsail Start Documents Generation Process
