Automate Data Routing Between Apps with Claris Connect

Posted by Kyo Logic on June 21, 2025

Data lives everywhere—sales teams use Slack, managers rely on Google Sheets, and core business workflows run through FileMaker. Manually moving data between these platforms is tedious, error-prone, and costly. The solution? Automation.

Claris Connect enables businesses to route data between their favorite apps automatically, eliminating manual handoffs and keeping systems in sync. Whether you’re updating leads, pushing orders to spreadsheets, or sending alerts to team chat, Claris Connect reduces friction, improves accuracy, and saves time.

The Problem with Manual Data Transfer

Switching between apps and copying data by hand creates a host of issues:

  • Wasted Time – Employees spend hours retyping or exporting/importing data.

  • Human Error – Typos, missed updates, or out-of-sync records disrupt workflows.

  • Disconnected Systems – Critical tools like Google Sheets, Slack, and FileMaker don’t talk to each other.

  • Missed Notifications – Teams rely on inboxes or memory to catch task updates.

Claris Connect acts as the “glue” that ties these systems together—no code required.

How Claris Connect Automates Cross-App Workflows

Claris Connect enables users to build automated flows (called flows) that pass data between apps based on triggers and rules. With it, you can:

  • Sync Data Between FileMaker and Google Sheets
    Automatically push form submissions, project data, or test results from FileMaker into Google Sheets—or pull spreadsheet updates into FileMaker.

  • Send Notifications in Slack or Email
    When a record is created or updated in FileMaker, Claris Connect can alert your team in Slack or send a formatted email.

  • Route Web Form Submissions into FileMaker
    Connect tools like Typeform, JotForm, or Claris Studio to FileMaker in real time.

  • Schedule Routine Tasks
    Automate daily exports, report generation, or follow-up messages at set intervals.

  • Connect to Hundreds of Apps
    From Dropbox and QuickBooks to Trello and Mailchimp, Claris Connect expands FileMaker’s reach without rebuilding your tech stack.

Use Cases That Save Real Time

  • A support request submitted via Google Form creates a new ticket in FileMaker and alerts the service team in Slack.

  • A new FileMaker order logs into a shared Google Sheet for forecasting and triggers a notification for the shipping team.

  • At the end of each week, Claris Connect emails a summary of completed work orders from FileMaker to managers.

No scripting. No dev time. Just fast, no-code automation that keeps your systems in sync.

Claris Connect makes it easy to automate data routing between FileMaker and the tools your team already uses—reducing manual tasks, improving accuracy, and boosting efficiency. Whether it’s syncing spreadsheets, sending notifications, or tying together cloud services, Claris Connect keeps your workflows moving smoothly.
