How to integrate CloudSign with Airtable to automatically update Airtable based on contract information finalized in CloudSign

a.ohta

If you are storing contract data exchanged via CloudSign separately, you manually transfer it to another tool, right? While it's not exactly hard labor, doesn't it feel like a considerable burden when the number and frequency increase?
So, what if you could automate this entire process? This time, to save the trouble of manual transfer, we will introduce a method to integrate CloudSign with Airtable and automatically transfer contract data to Airtable!
Moreover, no programming knowledge is required for the integration. We will explain in detail with images how to easily implement automation.

Benefits of Integrating CloudSign with Airtable

1. Improved Efficiency

With this integration, you can automatically update Airtable based on the data of contracts concluded with CloudSign.
Since the data is updated automatically, you can save the trouble of manual input and save time. Additionally, automatic updates of Airtable data can reduce the back-and-forth between different tools.
As a result, you will be able to proceed with your work more efficiently.

2. Maintain Data Accuracy

When Airtable is automatically updated based on the data of contracts concluded with CloudSign, you can reduce the number of human errors that tend to occur during manual input.
Also, since it becomes easier to check the latest information, the number of times you need to confirm with the person in charge whether Airtable's data is up-to-date should decrease.
If accurate data is always reflected, administrative tasks will be smoother.

Step 3: Set up to update Airtable

Other Automation Examples Using CloudSign and Airtable

Yoom offers numerous flowbots using CloudSign and Airtable. Let me introduce a few!

1. Update Google Spreadsheet Information When a Contract is Completed in CloudSign
This is an integration between CloudSign and Google Spreadsheets. How about using it for simpler data management?

2. Once the contract is completed with CloudSign, update the information in Salesforce
It is also possible to link with customer management tools. Let's centralize the data.

3. Once the invoice issuance is completed with Money Forward Kessai, add it to Airtable
After signing, it is recommended to compile the issued invoice data in Airtable.

Summary

Airtable, which allows centralized management of various data, is a very convenient tool, but manually entering data can be somewhat cumbersome.
When dealing with large amounts of data, it is not efficient, so consider implementing automation.
By introducing automation, you can expect improved work efficiency. It will become easier to check the latest data at any time, and sharing with team members will also become easier.

After working as a general store manager, I started working from home as an SEO writer. Later, an outsourcing agreement was signed with a marketing startup for about 5 years. Surrounded by students at the University of Tokyo, I held a computer and spent my days studying various business terms and how to use SaaS tools. When I was a general store manager, time was taken over and over again by office work such as sales and inventory management, human resource management, and ordering, etc., and I was unable to serve customers and often missed sales times. Even when outsourcing, there are many detailed tasks such as input, etc., and “can't such monotonous tasks be automated?” I thought so, and I really sympathize with Yoom's vision!
