Grain integrates with Zapier, allowing you to automate the repetitive tasks of moving the information captured via Grain—Clips, Stories, or Recordings—to any of your favorite tools!
Step 1: Log in to or Sign up for Zapier
Log into your Zapier account or sign up for a free account here if you don’t have one.
Step 2: Create a Zap!
If you’re new to Zapier, try some of the pre-made examples here. It’s the easiest way to get started.
Set up a custom workflow
Click “Create Zap”
You need to set a trigger for your Zap. Type "Grain" in the Choose a Trigger 'App Event' search box and select the Grain app.
Select a Trigger event (and event that starts your Zap) from the list based on what you intend to achieve. For instance, if you want to send a complete recording from Grain to any of your work tools, Trigger should be “Recording Added.”
Once you select the trigger, you’ll be asked to choose your Grain account. Select your Grain account(if already signed in) or Sign in to your Grain account.
When you click on 'sign in', you will be redirected to the Grain website and automatically logged in. You can then click 'Continue' in Zapier.
Next, you can test your Grain Trigger. When you click “Test Trigger,” Zapier will check and let you know if the trigger is working as expected.
Once the trigger setup is done, you’ll be able to select an Action. This is what Zapier will do when something is triggered from Grain.
Select the App and ‘Action Event.’ For example, if you want to upload the recording to Google drive, the App will be 'Google drive' and Event will be 'Upload File.'
Follow the rest of the steps until you get to the last window that allows you to click 'Publish.'
Step 3: Take Your Zap Live
Once you click ‘Publish’, you should get confirmation that your new Zap is turned on and ready to go.
Each time your Zap is triggered your Action will run.
