This template watches a Google Drive folder for new markdown files, downloads each file, and turns the markdown into HTML in JavaScript.
Google Docs then uploads that HTML as a formatted document. Connect Google Drive and Google Docs, then point the trigger at the folder you drop markdown into.
Latenode bills workflow runtime in CPU seconds. The first 10,000 CPU seconds are free each month, then usage follows pay-as-you-go CPU-second pricing. Plug-and-Play (PnP) AI nodes are billed separately—each PnP token is $1 USD, charged pay-as-you-go at vendor cost plus a small processing fee, with no API keys required.

The scenario starts when a new markdown file appears in the Google Drive folder you choose.
Latenode downloads the file. JavaScript turns the markdown into HTML and picks a document title from the filename.
Google Docs uploads the HTML and converts it into a formatted document.
Add a Google Drive connection with access to the folder that holds your markdown files.
Add a Google Docs connection for the Google account that should own the new documents.
Add a Google Drive trigger for new or changed files and select that folder. Filter by markdown if you keep other files there too.
Download the file, convert markdown to HTML in JavaScript, then upload the HTML with Google Docs. Drop a sample .md file and open the new Doc.
