📥 Typeform – Save Uploaded Files and Form Data to Google Drive

Why it’s helpful:

How to structure the workflow:
Trigger
App: Typeform
Event: New Form Response
What it does: Activates when a new submission is received, including any uploaded files.

Action
App: Google Drive
Event: Upload File
What it does: Saves the uploaded file to a designated Drive folder and optionally names the file using form fields.

Bonus Use Case:
You can pair this with a Google Sheets action to log the responder’s name, submission time, and file link. Perfect for tracking incoming resumes, client documents, or creative assets in one searchable place.

📄 Google Forms – Store Uploaded Files Automatically

Why it’s helpful:
If your form accepts file uploads (like resumes, design requests, or onboarding docs), those files can pile up fast. This integration ensures every uploaded file lands in the right Drive folder—automatically. You can even use the form data to generate docs, summaries, or folders.

How to structure the workflow:
Trigger
App: Google Forms
Event: New Form Response
What it does: Fires when a new response is submitted to a specific form.

🖋️ DocuSign – Store Signed Contracts

Why it’s helpful:
Once a contract is signed, it needs to be filed—fast. But downloading from DocuSign, renaming, and uploading manually is a chore. This integration takes care of it by saving signed PDFs to the correct Drive folder automatically. It keeps your deals organized and your team audit-ready.

How to structure the workflow:
Trigger
App: DocuSign
Event: Envelope Sent or Completed
What it does: Activates when a document is fully signed and completed in DocuSign.

💬 Slack – Archive Shared Files to Google Drive

Why it’s helpful:
Slack is great for sharing ideas—but terrible for long-term file storage. That amazing design mockup or signed agreement you dropped in a channel? Gone in a week. This integration grabs every file shared in Slack and stores it neatly in Drive, where it actually belongs.

How to structure the workflow:
Trigger
App: Slack
Event: New File Uploaded
What it does: Fires whenever someone uploads a file to any channel or direct message in your Slack workspace.

App: Google Drive
Event: Upload File

📊 QuickBooks – Back Up Invoices and Receipts in Google Drive

Why it’s helpful:
QuickBooks handles the accounting—but storing backup copies of invoices or receipts isn’t its strong suit. With this integration, every invoice you send out gets saved in Drive as a PDF—automatically organized by client, date, or billing cycle.

How to structure the workflow:
Trigger
App: QuickBooks
Event: New Invoice Created
What it does: Activates whenever a new invoice is generated in your QuickBooks Online account.
