Create a document in Google Docs from a template

Integrating Parseur with Google Docs through Zapier allows you to automatically generate documents in Google Docs based on data extracted from emails, PDFs, and other documents processed by Parseur.

Google Docs integration

Google Docs is a free word processing tool offered by Google as part of the Google Workspace (formerly known as G Suite) productivity suite. It integrates seamlessly with other Google Workspace tools such as Google Sheets, Google Slides, and Gmail and provides a wide range of templates for resumes, letters, reports, and meeting notes.

There are five ways you can integrate Google doc to automate your tasks:

1. Via Google Workspace Integrations
2. Using Zapier
3. Custom APIs
4. Add-Ons and Extensions
5. Collaboration Tools

Why integrate Parseur and Google Docs?

1. Automate Document Creation: You can automatically generate documents such as invoices, reports, contracts, and more, saving time and reducing manual effort.
2. Reduce Errors: Manual data entry is prone to errors, and with this integration, you eliminate the risk of typos and data entry mistakes, ensuring that your documents are accurate.
3. Increase Efficiency: It streamlines your workflow, allowing you to process and create documents faster.
4. Scalability: As your business grows, the integration scales with you. You can process an increasing number of documents without adding to your workload, allowing you to maintain high productivity levels.

What You Will Need

To use this integration, you will need:

• A Parseur account with a configured mailbox
• A Google Doc
• A Zapier account

Step 1: Create a Parseur mailbox

If you’re new to Parseur, sign up for an account. Choose the AI-assisted mailbox when creating your Parseur mailbox.

Step 2: Upload your document

For this integration, we will send a resume to the Parseur mailbox. Once Parseur receives the document, confirm your mailbox type and mailbox name.

Step 3: AI extracts the data automatically

Review the extracted data in Parseur to ensure accuracy. You can adjust the parsing template to capture all the necessary data.

Step 4: Prepare your Google Doc template

Create a template document in Google Docs where the extracted data from Parseur will be inserted.

Use placeholders to match the data fields from the template. Example: {{CandidateName}}, {{CandidateEmail}}.

Step 5: Connect Parseur with Zapier

Select Parseur as your trigger app in Zapier. Choose “New Document Processed” as the trigger event.

Zapier will prompt you to test the trigger by processing a document in Parseur. This ensures that the correct data is being captured.

Step 6: Connect Google Docs with Zapier

Set Google Docs as the Action App and “Create Document from Template” as the action event. Zapier will prompt you to choose the Google Docs template you prepared earlier.

Zapier will display the placeholders from your Google Docs template. Map each placeholder to the corresponding data field extracted by Parseur.

Step 7: Test the Zap template

Once the fields are mapped, test the Zap to ensure the document generated in Google Docs with the data from Parseur is correct.

Note: The data will not be sent to the Google Docs template that you created before. It will create a new document in your Google Drive. Once you are satisfied with the integration, you can turn the Zap on.
