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

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

Set Up the Google Drive and Confluence 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 Google Drive, Confluence, 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 Confluence integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Google Drive and Confluence (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 Confluence
Google Drive + Confluence + Slack: When a new file is added to a specified Google Drive folder, a new page is created in Confluence containing a link to the file. A Slack message is then sent to a designated channel notifying the team about the new Confluence page.
Confluence + Google Drive + Jira: When a new page is created in Confluence, a Jira task is created and the new Confluence page is linked within the task. A specified Google Drive folder is then searched for relevant documents, and links to those documents are added as comments to the Jira task.
