How to connect Google Drive and Amazon Redshift
Create a New Scenario to Connect Google Drive and Amazon Redshift
In the workspace, click the βCreate New Scenarioβ button.

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

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Google Drive, Amazon Redshift, and any additional nodes, donβt 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 βRun onceβ and triggering an event to check if the Google Drive and Amazon Redshift integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Google Drive and Amazon Redshift (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Google Drive and Amazon Redshift
Google Drive + Amazon Redshift + Google Sheets: When a new file is added to a specific Google Drive folder, it's automatically downloaded and its content inserted as a new row in an Amazon Redshift table. The status of the file processing is then tracked by adding a row to a Google Sheet.
Amazon Redshift + Google Drive + Slack: When new rows are added to an Amazon Redshift table, a Slack message is sent to a designated channel, alerting the team about the data import. An archive of the data is then created as a new file in Google Drive.
