Automate Google Docs Creation from Form Submissions
detail.loadingPreview
Effortlessly generate personalized Google Docs by automatically populating a template with data submitted through a simple form. Streamline your document creation process and save valuable time.
About This Workflow
This workflow revolutionizes how you create documents based on form input. It starts by capturing data from a web form and then uses that information to update a pre-designed Google Doc template. The process involves creating a copy of a template document, extracting and formatting the form data, and finally, replacing placeholder variables within the copied document with the actual submitted values. This ensures that each generated document is uniquely tailored to the form submission, offering a highly efficient and scalable solution for personalized document generation.
Key Features
- Dynamic Document Generation: Automatically create customized Google Docs from form submissions.
- Template-Based Creation: Leverage existing Google Docs as templates for consistent branding and structure.
- Automated Data Mapping: Seamlessly map form fields to placeholders within your Google Doc.
- Secure Authentication: Integrates with Google Drive and Google Docs APIs for reliable access.
How To Use
- Form Trigger: Set up your form with at least a 'name' field. Consider adding basic authentication for security.
- Copy Template File: Configure the Google Drive node to copy your desired Google Doc template. Ensure you have provided the correct File ID.
- Format Form Data: The code node will process the incoming form data, preparing it for the next step.
- Format for Google Doc API: This code node transforms the form data into a format compatible with the Google Docs batchUpdate API, identifying variables to be replaced.
- Replace Data in Google Doc: Configure the HTTP Request node to use the Google Docs batchUpdate API. The URL will dynamically reference the ID of the copied template file, and the 'requests' body will contain the formatted data for replacement. Ensure you have set up Google Docs OAuth2 API credentials.
