Nylas is a unified communications API that provides email, calendar, and contacts access across Gmail, Microsoft 365, Exchange, Yahoo, iCloud, and IMAP providers.
Paperform connects to Nylas directly through Stepper workflows.
Each new submission can be posted to Nylas, in the channel where someone will act on it.
How Nylas connects to Paperform
