Taphome - Create PDF, Word, Excel Documents
Taphome can be connected with Documentero to turn device activity into ready-to-use reports and files. When a device value changes in Taphome, the data can be sent directly to Documentero through API or Make. This makes it easy to create custom documents like logs, certificates, or summaries in .docx, .pdf, or .xlsx formats. Users can set up automated document generation without manual data entry.
