Google Drive import

Connect Google Drive, build an automation with a Drive trigger pointed at a folder, and Document Blueprint pulls in new files automatically — same downstream pipeline as Gmail intake.

What you need

• Any workspace member can create a Drive automation (no role gate).
• A Google Drive folder you want to watch, and the folder's ID (the last segment of the folder URL).

Step by step

1. In Settings → Integrations, click Connect Google Drive and grant access.
2. Open the workspace sidebar's Automations drawer and click + New Automation.
3. On the Trigger node, pick Drive. Paste the Folder ID (e.g. 1A2bC_dEfGhIjK). The optional Folder name is display only — useful for scanning the cards list later.
4. (Optional) Add a File name contains filter (e.g. INV-2026) and restrict MIME types (e.g. application/pdf, image/png).
5. On the Destination node, pick the mailbox and the duplicate-handling rule. Choose File storage (Firebase / Google Drive / Both) — only relevant when both integrations are connected.
6. (Optional) Turn on Extract Data and pick the template that should run on the file.
7. Save, then drop a test file into the folder. Within a minute it appears in the destination mailbox.
