How to connect Alegra and Google docs
Create a New Scenario to Connect Alegra and Google docs
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 Alegra, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Alegra or Google docs will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Alegra or Google docs, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.
Add the Alegra Node
Select the Alegra node from the app selection panel on the right.

Set Up the Alegra and Google docs Integration
Use various Latenode nodes to transform data and enhance your integration:
- Branching: Create multiple branches within the scenario to handle complex logic.
- Merging: Combine different node branches into one, passing data through it.
- Plug n Play Nodes: Use nodes that don’t require account credentials.
- Ask AI: Use the GPT-powered option to add AI capabilities to any node.
- Wait: Set waiting times, either for intervals or until specific dates.
- Sub-scenarios (Nodules): Create sub-scenarios that are encapsulated in a single node.
- Iteration: Process arrays of data when needed.
- Code: Write custom code or ask our AI assistant to do it for you.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Alegra, Google docs, 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 Alegra and Google docs integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Alegra and Google docs (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Alegra and Google docs
Alegra + Google Docs + Slack: When a new invoice is created in Alegra, a copy of the invoice details is appended to a Google Docs document, and a Slack message is sent to a designated channel, notifying the team about the new invoice and linking to the Google Docs archive.
Google Docs + Alegra + Google Sheets: When a new document is created in Google Docs, extract invoice data from it. Use this data to create a sales invoice in Alegra and then log the invoice details into a Google Sheet.
