Most powerful ways to connect Google Chat and Zoho Inventory
Google Chat + Zoho Inventory + Google Sheets: Whenever a new message is posted in Google Chat, the flow checks if the message contains inventory change-related keywords. If it does, the details of the inventory change are extracted and logged into a new row in a specified Google Sheet.
Zoho Inventory + Google Chat + Slack: When a new item is created in Zoho Inventory, its details are sent as a message to a Google Chat space. Additionally, if the stock level of any item falls below a defined threshold within Zoho Inventory, a notification is sent to a designated Slack channel.
