# Quickstart

To make it easier for you to integrate our IDP platform with Zapier, we have prepared a short example showing connecting Alphamoon Workspace with Google Drive using [Triggers ](#set-a-trigger)and [Actions](#set-an-action).

Let's get started!

## How to set up a Zapier integration?

To set up a Zapier integration, you first need to create a **Zap**, which is an automation workflow that connects two or more apps together. Each Zap is composed of one **trigger** and one or more **actions**. The **trigger**, starts the automation flow, pushing the result to further processing by **actions**.

**Note:**

If you are new to Zapier, feel free to follow the [official guideline](https://help.zapier.com/hc/en-us/articles/8496309697421-Create-Zaps#1-add-a-trigger-0-2) **or** follow the detailed instructions for Alphamoon Workspace [triggers ](alphamoon-as-a-trigger)and [actions](alphamoon-as-an-action).
{% endhint %}

## Example - Alphamoon Workspace & Google Drive integration

See how you can use the processing result in actions on the example of the integration of Alphamoon Workspace and Google Drive.

Let's say every time a new field appears in your Google Drive you want to create a new file processing in Alphamoon Workspace.

### Set a Trigger

First, set up App & event. In our case, the app would be Google Drive. The event - New File. Now, hit the **Continue** button.

**Sign in** to your account to go to the third step which is **setting up a Trigger**.&#x20;

Choose your Drive and click the **Continue** button.

Now you can **test** your Trigger.

### Set an Action

Once you have your Trigger, time to set up an action which is creating a new file processing in Alphamoon Workspace.

First, choose our Alphamoon Workspace (0.2.0.) app and choose the "Create new file processing" option. Hit the **Continue** button.

**Sign in** to your Alphamoon Workspace account to go to the third step - setting up an Action.

At this stage select the:

* Filename
* File (an actual file, public URL, string)
* The process that will be the destination for new documents (in our case - My processes).

**Congrats!**

All you need to do is to click the **Continue** button and you are ready to **Test &** **Publish** your Action.
