Add Quip Documents and Chat to Your Processes and Flows

Process Builder and Flow Builder now include standard Quip actions, so you can easily include Quip documents and chat rooms in your automated Salesforce processes. You can also deploy customized auto-fill Quip templates and standardized Quip documents based on specific actions taken in their connected Salesforce records.

Where: This change applies to Lightning apps in Lightning Experience in Essentials, Professional, Performance, Unlimited, and Developer editions.

Who: This change is available in orgs with a Quip Enterprise plan or free trial.

Why: Flow Builder includes a new Quip category in the New Action page and 11 Quip-related actions that you can add to your flows. The new actions include creating Quip documents, adding chat messages to a document or chat room, creating a chat room, editing a Quip document, and more.

Here's an example of creating a Quip document. You must specify a document name which, as a power Flow Builder user, you've probably stored in a variable. You can also optionally do all kinds of fun things, like share the document, add initial content, and put it in an existing folder.
