Frequently Asked Questions about Google Docs + Hover integrations
New to automation with Zapier? You're not alone. Here are some answers to common questions about how Zapier works with Google Docs and Hover
How do I set up an integration between Google Docs and HOVER?
To set up an integration between Google Docs and HOVER, you need to use our platform to create a workflow. Start by selecting Google Docs as your trigger app and define the event that will trigger an action in HOVER, such as creating or updating a document. Then, select HOVER as your action app and configure the specific action, like creating a new project or updating existing data.
What triggers can I use with Google Docs in this integration?
In our integration setup, you can use triggers such as 'New Document', 'Updated Document', or 'Document Shared' in Google Docs. These triggers will initiate actions in your connected HOVER application.
Can I automatically update a project in HOVER when a document is modified in Google Docs?
Yes, you can set up an automation where updating a document in Google Docs triggers an update to a corresponding project in HOVER. This requires selecting 'Updated Document' as the trigger event and configuring the desired action within HOVER.
What actions are available for HOVER when triggered by events from Google Docs?
Available actions for HOVER include creating new projects, updating existing projects, and adding notes or attachments to a project. The specific available actions depend on what you choose as your triggering event from Google Docs.
Is it possible to create a new document in Google Docs based on changes in HOVER?
Currently, the integration primarily supports triggering actions in HOVER from events that occur within Google Docs rather than vice versa. Creating documents based on changes in HOVER is not directly supported.
Do I need any special permissions to integrate these applications?
For integrating Google Docs with HOVER through our platform, you'll need permissions to access both applications: permission to view or edit documents within your Google Drive and permission to access project data within your HOVER account.
How do I troubleshoot issues with my integration between these apps?
If you're experiencing issues with the integration between Google Docs and HOVER, start by checking your connection settings for both applications on our platform. Ensure that all necessary permissions are granted and that the correct accounts are linked. Reviewing logs available through our dashboard can also help identify any errors or misconfigurations.
