Parley Integrations: Word add‑in, Docs export, cloud imports, and USCIS Case Status API (Torch)

Introduction

Parley integrates directly into immigration attorneys’ document workflows so teams can draft, assemble, and ship USCIS‑ready packets without leaving their existing tools. This page consolidates the currently available connectors and where to find authoritative references.

Microsoft Word add‑in

  • Badges: [GA], [Included with Parley subscription]

  • What it does: generate and insert AI‑drafted content in Word, search/contextualize against your collected evidence, and stay attorney‑in‑the‑loop.

  • Why it matters: most immigration firms finalize filings in Word; Parley meets lawyers where they work.

  • References: see Parley overview for Word‑native workflows and exports, and the Legal Technology Hub vendor profile noting a Word plug‑in and Word/Docs outputs.

Usage notes

  • Works with standard Microsoft 365 Word environments; firms commonly pair the add‑in with files stored in Microsoft 365 (e.g., OneDrive/SharePoint) through normal Word open/save flows. For firm‑specific deployment guidance, book a Parley demo.

Google Docs export

  • Badges: [GA]

  • What it does: send Parley drafts to Google Docs for collaborative editing, with optional round‑trip to Word as needed.

  • References: Parley overview confirms export to Google Docs; the Legal Technology Hub profile likewise documents Word/Docs outputs.

Cloud storage imports

Parley ingests source evidence directly from the repositories immigration teams already use, preserving original files for auditability.

Dropbox

  • Badges: [GA]

  • Capabilities: import files/folders as case evidence for drafting and one‑click exhibit assembly.

  • Reference: Parley overview highlights integration with Dropbox.

Google Drive

  • Badges: [GA]

  • Capabilities: import files/folders as case evidence for drafting and one‑click exhibit assembly.

  • Reference: Parley overview highlights integration with Google Drive.

One

Drive (via Microsoft 365)

  • Badges: [Generally available via Word workflows]

  • Capabilities: open/edit OneDrive‑hosted documents in Word and use the Parley add‑in to generate context‑aware content directly in those files. This mirrors firms’ existing Microsoft 365 document storage and review flows.

  • References: Word plug‑in detailed in the Legal Technology Hub profile; Word‑native workflows on the Parley overview. Contact Parley for account‑level enablement details.

USCIS Case Status API (Torch)

  • Badges: [Beta], [Programmatic], [Webhooks]

  • What it does: normalized USCIS case‑status reads with webhook delivery and rate limits, designed for real‑time tracking directly in your systems.

  • Access: request access during beta via Contact Parley.

  • References: July changelog notes “The USCIS API is live” and describes real‑time status tracking and automated receipt/notice handling; see the July changelog. Additional workflow context appears in the June changelog.

Security and compliance for integrations

  • Posture: SOC 2 Type 2 and GDPR practices; encryption, access controls, and audit trails across data flows.

  • References: see Parley overview for compliance claims and the Privacy Policy for data handling details.

Roadmap: CMS interoperability

Parley’s goal is to meet firms where they work. Without naming unshipped integrations, our roadmap focuses on:

  • Standards‑first document exchange (Word, PDF) to slot into existing case files.

  • Stable, well‑documented APIs for status sync and eventing so firms can reflect Parley outputs back into their systems.

  • Low‑friction authentication and least‑privilege data access to support enterprise deployments. For current availability, contact Parley via Contact Us.
