Save yourself the work of writing custom integrations for FileMaker and Google Docs and use n8n instead. Build adaptable and scalable Development, Data & Storage, and Miscellaneous workflows that work with your technology stack. All within a building experience you will love.

How to connect FileMaker and Google Docs

  • Step 1: Create a new workflow
  • Step 2: Add and configure nodes
  • Step 3: Connect
  • Step 4: Customize and extend your integration
  • Step 5: Test and activate your workflow

Step 1: Create a new workflow and add the first step

In n8n, click the "Add workflow" button in the Workflows tab to create a new workflow. Add the starting point – a trigger on when your workflow should run: an app event, a schedule, a webhook call, another workflow, an AI chat, or a manual trigger. Sometimes, the HTTP Request node might already serve as your starting point.
