Zapier + Nitro Automate

Connect Nitro with your favourite tools to map, build, trigger, and scale powerful PDF and eSign workflows across thousands of apps, no code required. 

What are the benefits of integrating Nitro with Zapier?

  • One connector for every document workflow: Convert, extract, merge, split, compress, redact, and watermark documents through a single Zapier connector instead of stitching together multiple single-purpose plugins.
  • Turn static documents into actionable data: Automatically extract text, tables, and form fields from incoming PDFs and send structured data directly into your CRMs, databases, or spreadsheets.
  • Route documents automatically: Automatically trigger document processing when events occur in other tools and route outputs based on conditions, eliminating manual handoffs and approval delays.
  • Embed signing into your workflows (coming soon): Trigger signature requests as part of a wider automation, then pass completed documents and audit trails straight into your next workflow steps.
  • Built for scale: Process large document batches smoothly in the background using Nitro's enterprise-grade infrastructure designed for high throughput. 

Features & example workflows

With the Nitro integration for Zapier, you can incorporate intelligent document processing and eSigning into the wider processes you already automate across the Zapier ecosystem. 
 
Core features 
  1. Format conversion: Seamlessly convert between PDF and Office formats (Word, Excel, PowerPoint) in either direction.
  2. Data extraction: Extract text, tables, form fields, and metadata from documents to feed downstream systems automatically.
  3. Document operations: Merge, split, compress, redact, and watermark PDFs on demand as part of your workflow.
  4. End-to-end eSignatures (coming soon): Create envelopes, add documents and participants, place signature fields, manage signing order, send requests and reminders, and retrieve completed documents with full audit trails—all as Zapier actions.
  5. Secure and protect: Encrypt documents with passwords, manage permissions, and redact sensitive data to keep your workflows compliant and secure.
  6. No-code integration: Build, trigger, and scale multi-step Zaps without writing code.
  7. Enterprise performance: High-throughput processing handles background automation without stalling your workflows. 
Example workflows 
  1. Trigger on file upload: When a file is uploaded to Dropbox, Google Drive, or OneDrive, automatically convert it to PDF, compress it, and archive it in your cloud storage.
  2. Trigger on email attachment: When an email attachment or invoice arrives in Gmail or Outlook, automatically extract form fields, text, or tables and push structured data directly to Salesforce, HubSpot, or a database.
  3. Trigger on document creation: Once a document is generated in another tool, automatically merge, watermark, or redact sensitive data, before routing it to its final destination.
  4. Trigger on signed document (coming soon): Once a document is fully signed, automatically store it in the right folder, update a CRM record, or notify the relevant team—no manual follow-up needed.
