How to connect Acapela Cloud and Grist
Create a New Scenario to Connect Acapela Cloud and Grist
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.

Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a Acapela Cloud, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Acapela Cloud or Grist will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Acapela Cloud or Grist, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the Acapela Cloud Node
Select the Acapela Cloud node from the app selection panel on the right.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Acapela Cloud, Grist, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the Acapela Cloud and Grist integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Acapela Cloud and Grist (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Acapela Cloud and Grist
Acapela Cloud + Grist + Slack: When a new audio file is generated or an audio event occurs in Acapela Cloud, its details are added as a new record in Grist. A notification is then sent to a Slack channel to inform the team about the new recording and its associated transcription, if available in Grist.
Grist + Acapela Cloud + Slack: When a new record is created or updated in Grist, the text from a specific column is used to generate an audio file in Acapela Cloud. The generated audio file is then uploaded to Acapela Cloud, and a notification with the audio file is sent to a specified Slack channel.
