How to connect Google Chat and Netlify
Create a New Scenario to Connect Google Chat and Netlify
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 Google Chat, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Google Chat or Netlify will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Google Chat or Netlify, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the Google Chat Node
Select the Google Chat node from the app selection panel on the right.

Google Chat
Configure the Google Chat
Click on the Google Chat node to configure it. You can modify the Google Chat URL and choose between DEV and PROD versions. You can also copy it for use in further automations.
Add the Netlify Node
Next, click the plus (+) icon on the Google Chat node, select Netlify from the list of available apps, and choose the action you need from the list of nodes within Netlify.

Authenticate Netlify
Now, click the Netlify node and select the connection option. This can be an OAuth2 connection or an API key, which you can obtain in your Netlify settings. Authentication allows you to use Netlify through Latenode.
Configure the Google Chat and Netlify Nodes
Next, configure the nodes by filling in the required parameters according to your logic. Fields marked with a red asterisk (*) are mandatory.
Set Up the Google Chat and Netlify 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 Google Chat, Netlify, 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 Netlify integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Google Chat and Netlify (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 Netlify
Netlify + GitHub + Google Chat: When a new deploy succeeds in Netlify, a message is posted to a Google Chat space, containing a link back to the associated GitHub pull request (if available, searched by branch name). This keeps the team informed about successful deployments and provides quick access to the relevant code changes.
Netlify + Google Chat + Slack: When a Netlify deploy fails, a notification is sent to both a Slack channel and a Google Chat space. This ensures that the team is immediately alerted to the failure, allowing for quick investigation and resolution. The notification includes details about the failed deploy.
