Building a Custom App in Make.com from scratch feat. Gavel, Part 1

Welcome to the 1st episode of my new series on building custom apps on Make.com!

In this video, I'm diving deep into the process of creating, deploying, and publishing a custom app using Make for Gavel, a powerful document automation platform popular among law firms.

Custom apps are helpful when Make doesn’t yet have a native integration with the application you are using; and allow you to build a connector that would function in exactly the same way as any other app on Make (such as Gmail or HubSpot).
