I have a workflow that takes responses from a google form and maps them to custom fields in a Trello card  I would like to add a step to also have that google form converted to a pdf file and attach to same card.  I’ve been working on this for days and cannot figure out how to accomplish this.  Help!

Hi there @lorio0130,

Welcome to the Community! 🎉

Here’s how I see the Zap you have in mind:

  1. Trigger: Google Forms - New Form Response
  2. Action: Google Docs - Create Document from Text - Map each question and answer from the form response into the document body. This step will create a structured document with the responses.
  3. Action: Google Drive - Find a File - Map the document name in the “File Name” field of the Google Drive action to retrieve the created document.
  4. Action: Trello - Create Card - Map the .pdf attachment from the Google Drive step to the “Attachment” field of the Trello step.

Kindly give it a try and let me know how it goes? I'll keep an eye out for your response!

Thank you!  This is what I needed to get me started.  I actually created a document from a template that I designed and was able to complete the full workflow successfully.
