Very helpful! Thank you so much, Manuel! And what module in Make would you recommend to generate a few dynamical rows in Invoice.PDF becoming from GS to Google Doc then to PDF (e.g. rows of Invoice Items)?
Hey Abbey, glad you liked the video! It really depends if you need to format them or not. For formatting all similar, you can format it in your Google Doc template and then insert it. For dynamic amount of rows, you can go with the Text Aggregator + HTML structure and then create a new Google Doc with HTML. Alternatively, you can use the free Word module to insert a dynamic amount of items/rows in your document. Then download it as PDF. Does that help? Feel free to schedule a quick 10-min call with me if you still need help: techflow.ai/10-minute-time-potential-session
So can I create a spreadsheet, input my docs as links, and then use Make functions to create one PDF document with all of the docs I inserted into the spreadsheet? Is this feasible using your method?
Good question! You'd get 1 PDF file per Google Doc that you've inserted into your Google Sheet. Then you'd have to use a tool like CloudConvert to merge the PDF pages into one big PDF if that's your desired outcome. That would most likely be the cleanest setup to achieve this. But yes - that's totally doable with Make.
You can simply extend the permissions of your Google Drive connection. Make will prompt you to do that when you select an existing connection within the "Download a File" module. Hit the "Continue" button and sign in with the same Google Account again. Then it should work.
Hope you found this tutorial helpful! What other tasks or processes are you looking to automate with Make.com?
Share your ideas in the comments.
Wow, super simple to solve this problem. I really like the part about the variable inputs with the {{ }} super helpful. Thnx
Super helpful! With Make, PDF conversion is now as easy as 1,2,3.

Muy bueno el vídeo y las explicaciones. Tienes un nuevo suscriptor.
Muchas gracias! 😊
Thnks for the explanation!
I need a support.
Is it possible to create a file and move that new document to the created file?
Thank you! 😊
What do you mean by "move that new document to the created file"?
Can you please elaborate that?
Cheers, Manuel
Love it!
Great to hear! 😊 Thank you.

I want to convert google sheet into PDF but Google Drive connection needs special permission; is there another alternative?
You can simply extend the permissions of your Google Drive connection.
Make will prompt you to do that when you select an existing connection within the "Download a File" module.
