How to automatically Send Slack messages to a channel when a new document is added to a Google Docs folder

Add the Google Docs trigger to initiate your playbook's actions when a new document is added to a folder.

To do this, click "Add trigger" in your playbook. Select the "Document added to folder" trigger option from the dropdown menu under Google Docs. It will enable your playbook to automatically identify newly added Documents to a folder and trigger necessary actions.

If you still need to connect your Google Docs account to Relay.app, a prompt will guide you through the connection process.

Integrate Slack automation into your playbook to ensure that you receive timely updates when a new document is added to a Google Docs folder.

Select "Add Step" and then find the "Send message" automation for Slack. Enter all the required details, including the sender's name, the Slack channel for updates, and the message body containing detailed information.

If you still need to connect your Slack account to Relay.app, you will be prompted to complete that connection. Ensure that you allow the necessary permissions for Relay.app to send messages through your Slack account.

Activating your playbook is the last step in the process. Once you turn it on, it will automatically send Slack messages to a channel when a new document is added to a Google Docs folder without requiring manual intervention.

To activate your playbook, click the toggle button at the header. Before activating, we recommend performing a test run of your playbook to ensure all the steps work seamlessly together.
