Save and Activate the Scenario

After configuring Google Chat, 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 Google Chat and Google docs integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Google Chat 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 Google Chat and Google docs

Google Chat + Google Docs + Google Calendar: When a new message is received in Google Chat, create a new document in Google Docs with the chat content. Then, create an event in Google Calendar with a link to the document.

Google Chat + Google Docs + Google Drive: When a new message is received in Google Chat, check if it contains the word 'finalized'. If it does, trigger Google Docs to get the specified document and save it to Google Drive.
