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

- 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 Miro, Grist, 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 Miro and Grist integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Miro and Grist (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Miro and Grist
Miro + Grist + Slack: When a new item is added or updated on a Miro board, this automation creates or updates corresponding records in Grist to track the ideas. Finally, a Slack message is sent to a channel to notify the team about the updates.
Grist + Miro + Google Docs: When a new record is created or updated in Grist, a new Miro board is created for brainstorming related to that record. After brainstorming, the items of the Miro board are then summarized and appended to a Google Docs document.
