Save and Activate the Scenario

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

Google Drive + Circle + Slack: When a new file is uploaded to Google Drive, the automation shares it with a specific Circle community and notifies members in a designated Slack channel.

Circle + Google Drive + Zoom: When a new member joins a Circle community, the automation grants them access to a welcome kit folder in Google Drive and schedules a Zoom welcome call.
