How to connect Figma and Google Drive
Create a New Scenario to Connect Figma 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 Figma, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Figma or Google Drive will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Figma or Google Drive, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the Figma Node
Select the Figma node from the app selection panel on the right.

Add the Google Drive Node
Next, click the plus (+) icon on the Figma node, select Google Drive from the list of available apps, and choose the action you need from the list of nodes within Google Drive.

Authenticate Google Drive
Now, click the Google Drive node and select the connection option. This can be an OAuth2 connection or an API key, which you can obtain in your Google Drive settings. Authentication allows you to use Google Drive through Latenode.
Configure the Figma and Google Drive Nodes
Next, configure the nodes by filling in the required parameters according to your logic. Fields marked with a red asterisk (*) are mandatory.
Set Up the Figma and Google Drive Integration
Use various Latenode nodes to transform data and enhance your integration:
- Branching: Create multiple branches within the scenario to handle complex logic.
- Merging: Combine different node branches into one, passing data through it.
- Plug n Play Nodes: Use nodes that don’t require account credentials.
- Ask AI: Use the GPT-powered option to add AI capabilities to any node.
- Wait: Set waiting times, either for intervals or until specific dates.
- Sub-scenarios (Nodules): Create sub-scenarios that are encapsulated in a single node.
- Iteration: Process arrays of data when needed.
- Code: Write custom code or ask our AI assistant to do it for you.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Figma, 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 Figma and Google Drive integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Figma 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 Figma and Google Drive
Figma + Google Drive + Slack: When a new file version is created in Figma, it is automatically uploaded to a specified folder in Google Drive. Subsequently, a notification is sent to a designated Slack channel to inform the team about the updated design.
Google Drive + Figma + Asana: When a new file is added to a specific Google Drive folder, a task is created in Asana for designers to update the corresponding Figma project with the new assets. This ensures that the Figma project is always up-to-date with the latest resources.
