Reduce communication noise - and rework!

If your company uses any type of internal communication tool, it's possible to automate the routine of notifications and alerts within it.

At Pluga, for example, you can connect this software to your project management platform so that every time a task changes status, this is communicated in a channel. In other words, it increases productivity, reduces communication noise, and avoids possible rework.

Customized alerts for customers

Often, personalized communication is what will captivate a customer to keep them interested in your brand. But doing this manually is almost impossible. Using Pluga, you can send these notifications automatically without losing personalization.

How to automate Google Drive with Pluga?

Pluga allows you to create automations between Google Drive and various other apps in a simple, practical way without needing to write a single line of code. See the steps to automate your tasks and start focusing on what really matters.

  • Trigger and source app of the automation

    What is the automation trigger?

    The trigger is the step that initiates automation. In the integration process, it is selected after choosing the source app. Based on this choice, you can define what will happen in the destination app of your automation.

  • Action and destination app of the automation

    What is an action within an automation with Google Drive?

    An action works as a response to the selected trigger. In other words, it occurs from the moment the trigger is activated: when something happens in the app selected as the source, the action will be performed in the destination app.

  • Information mapping of the automation

    How does information mapping work?

    Mapping is where you configure which information captured from the source app will be sent to each of the fields in the destination app(s). In this step, you define which information from one app should fill the fields of the other software.

  • Automation with multiple actions among more than two apps

    Is it possible to have more than one action?

    Through Pluga, you can create automations integrating multiple apps at once. For example, you can integrate an ad app + online spreadsheet + internal communication software, so when the trigger is activated, the first action is executed, and a notification is sent to your team.
