How to connect Google Drive and Simplesat
Create a New Scenario to Connect Google Drive and Simplesat
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 Simplesat will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Google Drive or Simplesat, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.
