Overview of this book

Many citizen developers regularly use spreadsheets in their business and day-to-day jobs. With AppSheet, you can take your spreadsheets to the next level by enhancing their ease of use. The platform allows you to run your business efficiently and manage it in the field outside of an office or indoor environment. This book enables you to create your own simple or medium to complex hybrid apps for business or personal use. As a beginner to AppSheet, this book will show you how the AppSheet Editor works and how it is used to configure, test, and deploy an app and share it with others as users or co-authors. You’ll learn about widely used features such as how to use data sources, create app views and actions, construct expressions with AppSheet functions, and make your app secure through security and UX options. Next, you’ll create email/attachment templates and develop reports/documents based on templates, store in the cloud, and send files through emails. You’ll also understand how to integrate third-party services and monitor various usage statistics of your app. As you progress, you’ll explore various features with the help of sample apps that you create using the book. By the end of this book, you’ll have learned how to make the most of AppSheet to build powerful and efficient applications.

We have to admit that this may be true, but we hope our guide helped you to learn the essence of Automation so that you can implement it in your own application having read through this chapter.

To understand Automation better, it is important to understand its anatomy. As we have learned, a Bot is constructed from the two major components of an Event and a Process. The Event settings are rather straightforward to understand, but if we start working with Bots in complex business scenarios, it is possible that you may face some difficulty.

AppSheet Automation can actually do tons of things, including automating extensive business logic and workflows. We could only cover a small part of Automation and just introduce the basics in this chapter. AppSheet’s official documentation provides a comprehensive guide for Automation.
