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

Set Up the Grist and Lark 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 Grist, Lark, 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 Grist and Lark integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Grist and Lark (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Grist and Lark
Grist + Lark + Slack: When a new record is created or updated in Grist, the automation summarizes the key information and sends it as a daily digest to a Lark group chat. Key updates are also posted to a designated Slack channel for broader team visibility.
Lark + Grist + Google Calendar: When a new message is posted in a Lark group chat (acting as meeting minutes), the automation creates corresponding records in a Grist database. Based on the content of the meeting minutes, a follow-up task is scheduled in Google Calendar.
