📝 Overview

Yoom provides its database functionality.

This guide will introduce three use cases for utilizing the Yoom database.


🗄️ What is a Database?

A database is a tool for aggregating and organizing information, similar to Google Sheets or Microsoft Excel.

Yoom’s database allows for advanced uses, such as centralizing data from other SaaS platforms and triggering Flowbots based on the information within the database.


🔍 Use Cases

1. Using it as a storage location for master data

One way to use the Yoom database is to store master data.

⬇️ Example of Sales Management

⬇️ Example HR Interview Response List

2. Using it for storing data needed for Flowbot operations

Yoom's Flowbot feature allows you to automate operations across different apps.

For example, you can track form responses in the Yoom database when a response is submitted.

By synchronizing form data with the Yoom database in advance, you can manage and automate data from form submissions.

3. Using it as a pseudo-trigger for Google Sheets or other apps

Yoom’s Flowbot feature allows you to trigger a Flowbot based on a specific event or action. However, some apps, like Google Sheets, cannot be set as triggers.

In this case, you can synchronize Google Sheets with the Yoom database and use the Yoom database as a trigger. This enables you to set a specific action in Google Sheets (which would normally not trigger a Flowbot) as the trigger.

⬇️ Example: Synchronizing Google Sheets with the Yoom Database

⬇️ Example: Using the Yoom Database (synchronized with Google Sheets) as a Trigger
