Practical ways you can use Google Docs and Miro

Create documentation for new system designs

When a new Miro board is drafted for a system architecture design, Zapier will create an organized document in Google Docs with placeholders for additional specifications or descriptions. This helps the IT team maintain structured documentation for every architecture update.

Generate content strategy documents

When a brainstorming board is set up on Miro for new marketing campaigns, Zapier will create a Google Docs file and copy over the high-level themes or topics from the board. This centralizes content ideas into an editable format for further refinement.

Marketing & Marketing Ops
Sync new project plans

When a new project plan is created in Miro, Zapier will automatically generate a corresponding document in Google Docs and append introductory notes. This ensures all project details are consistently stored and can be easily reviewed by team members.

Frequently Asked Questions about Google Docs + Miro 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 Miro

How do I connect Google Docs with Miro using your platform?

To connect Google Docs with Miro on our platform, you'll start by creating a Zap that links the two applications. Within the Zap editor, select Google Docs as your trigger app and choose a trigger event, like 'New Document in Folder'. Then select Miro as the action app and pick an action event such as 'Create Board'. Authenticate both accounts and follow the guided steps to establish the connection.

Can I automatically create a Miro board from a new Google Doc?

Yes, you can set up an automation where each time a new Google Doc is created in a specific folder, our integration triggers an event to automatically create a new board in Miro. Simply choose 'New Document in Folder' as your trigger event in Google Docs, and 'Create Board' as your action event in Miro.

Is it possible to update a Miro board when changes are made to a Google Doc?

Currently, direct updates from changes made in a Google Doc to an existing Miro board aren't supported through our platform. However, you can use triggers like 'New Document' or other updates-related triggers from third-party services as workarounds.

What happens if my authentication for Google or Miro expires?

If your authentication expires for either service, any existing Zaps will be paused until you reconnect your accounts. You will receive notifications prompting you to log back into both services through our platform to restore functionality.

Are there templates available for integrating Google Docs with Miro?

We offer pre-made Zap templates that facilitate quick integration between Google Docs and Miro. These templates allow users to easily set up common actions like creating a new board from documents or sending document summaries directly into boards without having to build Zaps from scratch.

Can I synchronize content between multiple Google Docs and one Miro board?

While direct synchronization of multiple documents with one board isn't inherently part of our offerings, you can create multiple Zaps where each document triggers specific actions on the same board. This offers flexibility but requires setting up individual Zaps for each desired document-board interaction.

'What if I encounter issues while setting up my integration?''

'If you face any difficulties during setup, refer to our detailed help documentation or reach out directly through support channels for personalized assistance. Our support team is equipped to assist you with troubleshooting any issue related to connecting Google Docs with Miro.'
