LAWLIFT does more than generate your documents — it can deliver them straight into the other tools your team already uses. With document export integrations, a finished document can be sent for signing, handed off for collaborative review, or routed into an automated workflow, all from a single export action inside a publication.
This article explains what the feature does, which integrations are available, and how to get it set up.
What this feature lets you do
When someone fills out a questionnaire and exports the resulting document, LAWLIFT can automatically pass that document (along with the answers and related information) to an external system. Instead of downloading a file and uploading it somewhere else by hand, the handoff happens in one step.
Typical uses include:
- Sending a contract straight to an e-signature platform so it's ready for the recipient to sign.
- Passing a draft into a collaborative editing tool so colleagues can review and refine it together.
- Triggering an automated process — for example, saving the document to a shared location, notifying a team, or starting an approval workflow.
- Connecting LAWLIFT to an in-house or third-party system your organisation uses, even if it isn't one of the named integrations below.
Each integration is set up specifically for your organisation and can be switched on for individual publications, so you decide exactly where and when documents are exported.
Available integrations
Custom Export Flows let your organization define its own connection. When a document is exported, the full export — the documents, the questionnaire answers, and the accompanying information and metadata — can be sent to the destination of your choice. This is the most flexible option and is well-suited to connecting LAWLIFT to internal tools or specialized platforms.
How it works for the end user
Once an integration has been configured for a publication, using it is simple: the person completing the questionnaire clicks the export action as usual, and LAWLIFT delivers the document to the connected system in the background. There is no separate step to learn — the integration runs as part of the normal export.
Getting set up
Export integrations are configured for each organization and enabled per publication, which means a short setup process is needed before they can be used.
To get started, get in touch through the LAWLIFT Help Center at support@lawlift.com and let our team know:
- Which system you'd like to connect to (SmashDocs, DocuSign, Power Automate, or another tool).
- Which publication or publications the integration should apply to.
- Any account or access details for the destination system, so the connection can be established.
Once the connection is set up and switched on for a publication, the export will route documents automatically from then on.
Security and data protection
Connections to external systems are handled securely. Any access details needed to connect to a system are stored in an encrypted format and used only during export, so your credentials remain protected.
This sits within LAWLIFT's wider approach to security and data protection: LAWLIFT is ISO 27001 certified and hosted in Germany, in line with European data protection standards.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to set this up myself?
No. Integrations are configured for your organization as part of a setup process handled with the LAWLIFT team. Reach out via support@lawlift.com to arrange it.
Can I use more than one integration?
Yes. Different publications can use different integrations, and the setup is tailored to your team's workflow.
What gets sent to the external system?
Depending on the integration, this can include the generated document, the answers entered in the questionnaire, and related information. The team that sets up your connection can confirm exactly what is shared for your specific configuration.
Can I connect to a tool that isn't listed here?
In many cases, yes — that's what Custom Export Flows are for. Get in touch about the system you'd like to connect.
