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

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

Configure the Firecrawl
Click on the Firecrawl node to configure it. You can modify the Firecrawl URL and choose between DEV and PROD versions. You can also copy it for use in further automations.
Add the Google Drive Node
Next, click the plus (+) icon on the Firecrawl node, select Google Drive from the list of available apps, and choose the action you need from the list of nodes within Google Drive.

Set Up the Firecrawl 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 Firecrawl, 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 Firecrawl and Google Drive integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Firecrawl 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 Firecrawl and Google Drive
Firecrawl + Google Drive + Slack: When a website crawl is complete in Firecrawl, the resulting report is uploaded to a designated folder in Google Drive. A notification is then sent to a Slack channel to alert the team that a new crawl report is available.
Google Drive + Firecrawl + Google Sheets: When a new file is added to Google Drive, Firecrawl extracts website data from the file. The extracted data is then added as a new row in a Google Sheet for analysis and reporting.
