Mail Merge in the Cloud with Google APIs

Jonathan Howard, lead developer at Drawloop Technologies, discusses the development and implementation of Dynamic Document Packages (DDPs) for Google Apps in the context of cloud-based mail merge solutions. The aim was to address the absence of a cloud-based mail merge tool, which combines documents and merges data without requiring local software installations. By leveraging Google APIs and the existing capabilities of Google Docs, Drawloop created a system that uses spreadsheets within Google Docs to manage and execute mail merges. This approach allows for the integration of Google Forms, enabling users to populate data easily and streamlining the document management process entirely in the cloud. Howard invites readers to try DDPs for Google Apps via the Google Apps Marketplace and to engage with the team at the Developer Sandbox at Google I/O.
