Start signing for a new Google Doc

Give new agreements a clear path from creation to signature.

Trigger

New Document Created

Triggers when a new Google Doc is created. This trigger monitors Google Docs and fires when new documents are detected. Uses timestamp filtering to efficiently poll for new documents.

Action

Send Document

Tool to send a document for signing. Use after confirming the document's ID, adding recipients, and uploading content.

Why this helps

New agreements are created quickly but signature requests are easy to forget afterward.

  • Catches newly created agreements
  • Standardizes the next step
  • Reduces forgotten signature requests
