**UPDATE: We have our winners!** 🎉

Thank you _so much_ to everyone who entered our first-ever Glide Community Challenge for the new Glide Actions and Integrations.

We had a ton of amazing entries from Gliders all around the world, and we had a ton of fun watching the demos of what you all built.

This was a very hard decision, but we do have a winner:

**Congratulations to Lucas Pires from Lution for his submission, Mamma mIA** 👨‍🍳

Lucas (@Lucas_Pires) combined the power of Glide Actions with OpenAI and [DocsAutomator](https://www.glideapps.com/docs/reference/integrations/docsautomator) to create a useful app. He put together a great demo for it, and then went above and beyond [with a written article on LinkedIn explaining what he built](https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/mamma-mia-culinary-companion-ai-your-kitchen-adventures-lucas-pires).

Congrats, Lucas! We’ll be in touch with your prize.

**We have five runners up, including an Editor’s Pick:**

- [TimotejX for creating a CRM virtual assistant.](https://twitter.com/TimotejX/status/1669189410582142979?s=20) It’s a nice, practical use case that’s very much in the spirit of who we’re building Glide for.
- [Daniel for using OpenAI’s image generation capabilities in a clever way for Dunder Directory.](https://twitter.com/b2bghostwriter/status/1669109952823152640?s=20) We can’t pass up a good Office reference!
- [Githigi Ndegwa for learning by building.](https://twitter.com/GithigiNdegwa/status/1669063988351729666?s=20) He’s created a simple app for a powerful use case: recording and transcribing audio notes for journalling and mood tracking.
- [François Douville for creating a children’s book using Glide](https://www.linkedin.com/posts/francoisdouville_projet-de-fin-de-semaine-no-code-cr%C3%A9er-activity-7075088017668874240-ciFn). A very creative app!
- [Matthew Shanks for the most creative use of Glide.](https://twitter.com/Matt__Shanks/status/1669168602509897729?s=20) Matthew gets our Editor’s Pick for pushing boundaries of what Glide can be used for.

All runners-up will receive a special Challenge Winner badge here in the community.

**Special mention**

- Robert Petitto (@Robert_Petitto) delivered a [great, bite-sized demo of solving a real-world problem using Actions & Integrations](https://twitter.com/rpetitto/status/1668079164241453057?s=20). Check it out!
- We’ll have Robert on for an upcoming Build With Glide + AI session in July. [Subscribe to the Glide Events calendar for updates on that.](https://glideapps.com/events)

**Thanks again to everyone who participated!**

See you for the next Glide Community Challenge. 💪

So, let’s play **the** game…

</div>

To be clear, is Glide judging the entire app or just the action within that app? Are they only judging a single custom action (which includes an integration) or on all of the custom actions/integrations we happen to use within the app?

I’m pretty sure it’s the entire app bob

</div>

Great question @Robert_Petitto!

Including a custom action and integration is the minimum criteria.

As @Lucas_Pires called out, we’re looking at the app as a whole.

This is exciting ! I have a question : The app needs to be brand new ? or is it possible to present a recent project that uses Glide Actions? thanks

The app as a whole… but only the “whole” that we show in our Loom video? Hah, that leaves room for dirty closets 😛

I could use a Glide badge. Time to get to work!

We don’t want to risk any sensitive information being shared accidentally.

That’s why we’re asking for new apps. 🙂

</div>

Here’s a quick example of how we’re using actions in Glide…

With the launch today of [@glideapps](https://twitter.com/glideapps)  
actions, here are a few we’re using in our own custom dashboard at [@LowCodeAgency](https://twitter.com/LowCodeAgency)

Users can ask a question about a project. Who’s in charge, status, due dates, tasks, etc. We integrated this action with [@OpenAI](https://twitter.com/OpenAI)

[  
  ![Image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/a/b/abc9be3237fe73273f108e9c744066c5193aafbe.jpeg)  
 ](https://twitter.com/eltintero/status/1666130885589041152/photo/1)

When someone requests days off, we have an action that creates a new record, sends a push notification to the admin (me), as well as sends a [@SlackHQ](https://twitter.com/SlackHQ) channel to our [#hr](https://twitter.com/hashtag/hr?src=hashtag_click) channel

[  
  ![Image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/f/a/fa116f23e1670046fa94caedef60d30ced07ffa7.jpeg)  
 ](https://twitter.com/eltintero/status/1666130887396802560/photo/1)

Another one… when our team members submit their invoice via our dashboard, we’re generating both a PDF and a CSV file of the invoice with [@PDFMonkey](https://twitter.com/PDFMonkey)

[  
  ![Image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/6/d/6d9a3b0ef2915f2b3083e1800ce138d8f589d70f.jpeg)  
 ](https://twitter.com/eltintero/status/1666130889351344135/photo/1)

I’m really excited about [@glideapps](https://twitter.com/glideapps) actions because it makes the process of building apps for businesses faster, easier and better for everyone!

No offence to any of the Gliders on this platform but if we had to vote for the winner and I had the deciding vote, I would give the $1000 to @Robert_Petitto  
He is by far the “actions” man for most of these new actions for me…

This is my personal opinion 🤗…

Hey @Luther! Thanks for the kind words, but I’d want to earn it just like anyone else 😇

I’ve seen some crazy cool and creative actions / solutions from other Gliders that rival what any expert could create.

I can’t wait to see the entries start coming in—fresh ideas for the future!
