Overview
Integration with Zapier and Aloware is a great way to connect apps that has no direct integration with Aloware.
If you are adding contacts to Aloware, and want to maintain a good record in your google sheet, you can do so by using the Aloware-Zapier integration. This will help you to continue maintaining your contact records without re-typing or missing out on a single contact.
There are different triggers and actions of Aloware in Zapier, and you will learn how to use one of the triggers in this article: creating a contact in Google sheet using the Aloware and Zapier integration.
