How to connect Adalo and Google Drive
Create a New Scenario to Connect Adalo and Google Drive
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.

Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a Adalo, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Adalo or Google Drive will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Adalo or Google Drive, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Adalo, Google Drive, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the Adalo and Google Drive integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Adalo and Google Drive (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Adalo and Google Drive
Adalo + Google Drive + Slack: Automatically back up new Adalo records to a Google Drive folder, and then receive a Slack notification when the backup is complete.
Google Drive + Airtable + Adalo: Track new file uploads in Google Drive by creating a new record in Airtable. This new record then triggers an update of a corresponding record in an Adalo app, making the file information available to users.
