Logic

Monitor Google Drive Folder

The automation continuously watches the selected Google Drive folder for any new file uploads. Whenever a new file is added, the system proceeds to the next step.

Logic

File Uploaded?

The automation checks if a new file has been added to the monitored Google Drive folder. If a new file is detected, the workflow continues to the next step. If not, the automation returns to the previous step to continue monitoring the folder.

4
Action

Extract File Metadata

When a new file is uploaded, the automation retrieves key details about the file, such as the filename, file type, and other relevant metadata. This information is used to populate the new OneNote note.

Action

Create OneNote Note

The final step of the automation is to create a new note in the user's Microsoft OneNote application. The note will contain the file details gathered in the previous step, allowing the user to easily reference and organize the new information within OneNote.
