DocsAutomator natively integrates with and lets users seamlessly generate PDFs straight from their Noloco app data.
Also check out Noloco's excellent knowledge doc for the DocsAutomator integration:
The first step is to create a new automation in your DocsAutomator account.
Please select Noloco as your data source.
Every automation in DocsAutomator needs a Google Doc template to create documents from. Please visit our Google Doc Template Guidefor all the options on how to get started. If you just want to test DocsAutomator, a good starting point is the Playground Template, which you can add in your automation.
You’re now set up to create documents from Noloco using DocsAutomator and Noloco Workflows! 🎉
In Noloco Workflows, you can set up a follow-up actions to save the PDF in your record or send an email with the generated PDF as an attachment.
You can add images from Noloco to your documents. Image placeholders are declared as {{image_UNIQUENAME}}. Please go here to learn more: Dynamic Images
In Noloco, you have to map image placeholders to the url of a file field (in the example below called “Image”):
You can build dynamic tables from line items in your Noloco data (think line items in an invoice, a list of hours worked by an employee etc.). Please make sure your line items are properly declared in your Google Docs template (see Google Doc Template Guide to learn about the right syntax).
In Noloco, you will then be able to map your line items to records linked to your triggering record.
In Noloco, add the “Generate a document with DocsAutomator” action to any workflow.
You find your API key under .
You will then be able to pick the created automation from the previous step and subsequently map your template placeholders to your Noloco data (please see more details below for image placeholders and line items).
