1. What is Docsumo’s Integration Hub?

A: The Integration Hub is a central place inside Docsumo that connects with cloud storage platforms (like Google Drive, OneDrive, and S3) and export tools (like Google Sheets or custom systems). It enables end-to-end document automation with minimal setup.

2. How do I get started with automating invoice processing? 

A: First, go to your Document Types in Docsumo and enable “Invoice” from the Model Hub. This tells Docsumo to use its invoice processing AI model on the uploaded documents.

3. How does Docsumo pull documents from Google Drive? 

A: After authenticating your Google account, you can set up a trigger that tells Docsumo which folder to watch. Every file added to that folder will automatically get pulled into Docsumo for processing.

4. Can I choose specific document folders in Google Drive?

A: Yes. You can either search for the folder by name or browse through your Drive structure. Once the folder is selected, Docsumo will continuously monitor it for new files.

5. What happens once documents are pulled into Docsumo?

A: Documents are automatically classified and processed by the selected document type model. After extraction, you can review and approve the data. Only approved files move to the next step, such as being pushed to Google Sheets.

6. How does the data export to Google Sheets work?

A: Set up another integration for Google Sheets. Once connected, define a trigger for exporting approved documents. Docsumo will create a new sheet or use an existing one and populate rows with extracted data.

7. What if my documents have multiple line items?

A: Docsumo handles that too. Each line item will generate a row in the Google Sheet. For documents with multiple line items, it duplicates the relevant key-value data so nothing is lost in context.

8. Is there a way to see extracted data before exporting?

A: Yes. You can view extracted key-value pairs, tables, and line items in Docsumo’s data table view. This step ensures accuracy before anything is exported to Sheets or other systems.

9. What if I want to connect to other systems besides Google Sheets?

A: You’re not limited to just Sheets. The Integration Hub supports exports to other downstream systems or custom webhooks for advanced workflows.

10. How fast can I set up this automation?

A: The full setup, from linking Google Drive, configuring triggers, approving files, and pushing data to Sheets, takes less than 15 minutes. Once done, it runs automatically in the background. Want to see how easy it is? Watch the quick setup video to follow along step by step.
