CARTER MORGAN: Hi,
I'm Carter Morgan, and today I'm going to share how
Google Cloud AppSheet can help empower citizen
developers to build their own no-code applications. Let's get started. [MUSIC PLAYING] Have you spent countless hours
sifting through an endless list of out-of-the-box solutions,
frustrated that nothing is quite what you'd
hope it would be? Do you ever think
to yourself, I know what I need to be
successful, I wish I could just build it myself? If so, no need to
look any further. No-code solutions like Google
Cloud AppSheet is democratizing technology, allowing everyone,
everywhere-- including you-- to become a citizen
developer that creates custom applications
to meet your unique needs. This means that by
leveraging the power of data, non-technical individuals can
build their own applications without even needing to know
how to write a line of code. By expanding the pool of who can
access app development from 10 million software engineers to
more than 2 billion people, AppSheet is helping increase
the number of people who can provide a quick solution. With the right no-code
platform in place, this newfound talent pool
of citizen developers can help their companies ideate
quickly, drive innovation, and increase agility in an
ever changing work environment. But how exactly
does AppSheet work? Well, it engages with your data,
and through Machine Learning, processes the
information in the data and creates application that can
be used on desktops, for those in the office, or
on mobile devices, for those in the field. You can think about
no-code behaving like a self-driving car. These self-driving
platforms allow you to describe to them
where you want to go, and AppSheet will
drive you there. In this case, your data
is the description. And certain data points, like
dates or email addresses, influence how your application
looks, feels, and behaves. There are three key areas of
no-code development that set AppSheet apart in
the no-code space-- governance, AI & ML
capabilities, and automation. For now, we're going to provide
a quick walk-through that showcases how
Google AI & ML help you get started with AppSheet
in just a few clicks. Let's get started. First, we're going to
authorize your data source. On the AppSheet home page,
click the Start for Free button. You'll be taken to a screen that
states Start with Your Data. Select your cloud-based
data source-- in this case, we'll be using
our Google Drive-- and authorize your account
to work with AppSheet. [MUSIC PLAYING] Your data will not be moved. It will remain with your
preferred data source. Once you've authorized
your data source, you will be taken to
your account page. For a quick start,
click Make a New App, and select Start
with Your Own Data. Next, provide a name
for your application and select the type of
application you want to build. For this app, let's build
a field service inspection application. Click Select Data, and
select from the list of authorized data sources. Select the appropriate
file for your application, and then let Google's Machine
Learning analyze your data and make smart suggestions
based on the type of data and your source. In this survey app, AppSheet
made recommendations for views of maps
and image gallery and forms based on your data. From here, you can customize
how your application looks and behaves, add
automation, and decide who you'd like to share
your application with. The emulator on the right
provides real-time updates and different screen types
to the changes you're making, so you can iterate on
your application quickly. From the complex
solutions to simple forms, the possibilities
are endless for what can be accomplished with a
no-code platform like AppSheet. Ready to start building a custom
line of business solutions that will empower your team? Get started today by clicking
