This event trigger will fire when a new file is created inside of GoogleDrive or added to GoogleDrive.

Setup

The first step to using this card is selecting the folder to watch for new files created. There are two ways to pick a folder:

  • Select a Folder Name from the Drop Down Menu
    1. Create the folder in Google Drive and give it a name.
    2. Create the File Created card for Google Drive in Azuqua.
    3. Scroll search and select the folder name.
    4. Leave the Folder ID field blank.
  • Input the Folder ID
    1. Create the folder in Google Drive.
    2. Navigate to the folder in Google Drive.
    3. Copy the Folder ID found in the URL. This is everything that comes after “folder/” in the URL. For example, if the URL was “https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1dyUEebJaFnWa3Z4n0BFMVAXQ7mfUH11g”, then the Folder ID would be “1dyUEebJaFnWa3Z4n0BFMVAXQ7mfUH11g”.
    4. Create the File Created card for Google Drive in Azuqua.
    5. Select “-- Use Folder ID --” for the Folder option.
