How to connect Google Drive and Open Weather
Create a New Scenario to Connect Google Drive and Open Weather
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 Open Weather will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Google Drive or Open Weather, 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.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Google Drive, Open Weather, 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 Open Weather integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Google Drive and Open Weather (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 Open Weather
Google Drive + Open Weather + Slack: Monitors Google Drive for changes in files related to outdoor events. When a file is updated, it fetches the current weather conditions. If the weather forecast indicates adverse conditions (e.g., rain, high winds), a notification is sent to a designated Slack channel.
Open Weather + Google Sheets + Google Drive: Retrieves daily weather forecasts and appends the data to a Google Sheet for historical tracking. Generates a summary report from the Google Sheet data and saves it as a file in Google Drive.
