Google Docs, answered.

Yes. Activepieces is open source and free to start, and the Google Docs piece is included on every plan, from the free cloud tier to any self-hosted deployment.

Add the Google Docs piece to a flow, then authenticate with OAuth 2.0 or Custom auth. Once connected, its 1 trigger and 6 actions are available anywhere in the builder.

"New Document" can start a flow that runs "Create Document", and you can chain Google Docs together with any of 760+ other apps and AI steps in between.

Yes. Activepieces is fully self-hostable, so you can run the Google Docs piece on your own infrastructure with your connections and your data staying in your environment.

Yes. Every piece you connect can be exposed over one Activepieces MCP server, so Claude, Cursor, Windsurf or any MCP client can call Google Docs actions as tools.
