Save and Activate the Scenario

After configuring Google Cloud Firestore, 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 Google Cloud Firestore and Google Drive integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Google Cloud Firestore 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 Google Cloud Firestore and Google Drive

Google Cloud Firestore + Google Sheets + Google Drive: This automation tracks changes in a Google Cloud Firestore collection and updates a Google Sheet. The Google Sheet data can then be used to generate reports, which are saved to Google Drive.

Google Drive + Google Cloud Firestore + Slack: This flow monitors a Google Drive folder for file changes. When a file is modified, it retrieves the corresponding document in Google Cloud Firestore, then posts a notification to a Slack channel with details about the updated document.
