Grist integration

Grist hybrid spreadsheet-database

Grist is the open-source spreadsheet-database hybrid — Airtable-shape with spreadsheet formulas (cells can reference other cells via Excel-style formulas), open-source self-hostable, plus Grist Cloud hosted offering. Tiny Command exposes one action, no triggers (Grist supports webhooks per-table for record events; configure pointing at a Tiny Command webhook trigger URL): List Items (records from a Grist table). The connection takes the Grist instance URL plus an API key. For workflows that need a spreadsheet-database with formula cells (where Airtable's formulas are too limited), Grist's spreadsheet engine handles complex calculations natively. For open-source self-host, Grist is one of the right alternatives to Airtable alongside NocoDB, SeaTable, and Teable.

Before you build

Three things worth knowing.

Filter at the trigger

Each workflow step uses 1 credit. Put a filter right after the trigger: events that don't match stop there and only use credits for the steps that already ran.

Authorize once, reuse anywhere

Connect Grist once and every workflow on your account can use its triggers and actions. You don't have to re-auth per workflow.

No JSON to read

Every Grist field shows up in the visual picker for downstream nodes. The raw payload is there for power users, optional for everyone else.

FAQ

Questions about the Grist integration.

If we missed yours, ping support. We usually reply within an hour.

How do I connect Grist to TinyCommand?

Open the TinyCommand workflow builder, drop in a Grist node, and click Connect. Authorize Grist once and any workflow on your account can use its triggers and actions. Most teams finish the connection in under two minutes.

What Grist triggers does TinyCommand support?

TinyCommand focuses on outbound actions for Grist today. Use TinyCommand's universal Webhook or Schedule trigger to start Grist workflows, then run any Grist action you need.

What Grist actions can I run from a workflow?

1 Grist action are available out of the box, covering other operations like "List Grist Records". Every action accepts dynamic inputs from upstream nodes, whether that's a search result, an AI output, or a form field.

Is the Grist integration real-time?

Grist actions execute synchronously inside your workflow. TinyCommand waits for Grist's API to confirm before continuing to the next step, so downstream nodes can rely on the result.

Do I need to write code to use Grist with TinyCommand?

No. Every Grist trigger and action is fully configurable from the visual workflow builder. For edge cases that aren't covered, drop in a custom HTTP node and call any Grist API endpoint directly.

How much does the Grist integration cost?

The Free plan includes 1,000 credits a month and every integration, with no credit card. Each workflow step uses 1 credit, and paid plans include more credits and team seats. The Grist integration itself has no per-app surcharge.
