2. Setting Up Your Workflow in Pabbly Connect

• Click on the ‘Create’ button after naming your workflow.
• You will see two boxes for trigger and action.
• Select Google Docs as the trigger application.

After setting up the workflow name, you will choose a trigger event. Select the event ‘New Document in Folder’ from Google Docs. This event will initiate the workflow every time a new document is created in your specified Google Drive folder.

3. Connecting Google Docs to Pabbly Connect

In this step, you will connect your Google Docs account to Pabbly Connect. Click on the ‘Connect’ button, then select ‘Add a New Connection’. You will need to grant Pabbly Connect access to your Google Drive account. If you have previously connected your Google Docs, you can opt for the existing connection. using Pabbly Connect

Once connected, you will see a list of available folders in your Google Drive. Choose the folder where you want to create new documents. For this tutorial, select the folder named ‘All Latest Files and Designs’. This ensures that any new document created in this folder will trigger the automation.

• Create a new document in the selected Google Drive folder.
• Once the document is created, go back to Pabbly Connect and click the button to fetch data.

This process confirms that Pabbly Connect is successfully receiving data from Google Docs. You will see a blank response initially, which will be populated once a new document is created.

4. Connecting OneDrive to Pabbly Connect

Now that your Google Docs is connected, the next step is to connect OneDrive to Pabbly Connect. In the action event section, select OneDrive and choose the ‘Upload File’ action. Click ‘Connect’ and provide access to your OneDrive account. using Pabbly Connect

Once connected, you will see a list of folders in your OneDrive account. Select the folder where you want to save the new Google Docs files. For this tutorial, choose the folder named ‘All Important Designs’. This is where all new documents from Google Docs will be automatically uploaded.

Map the file name from the Google Docs data received. Map the file URL to ensure the correct document is uploaded.

After mapping the necessary fields, click on the ‘Save and Send Test Request’ button. This will upload the file to OneDrive, confirming that your integration is working correctly.

5. Finalizing the Automation and Testing

After successfully connecting both Google Docs and OneDrive, it’s time to test the automation. Create a new document in the specified Google Docs folder. Once created, return to Pabbly Connect and refresh the OneDrive folder to check if the document has been uploaded. using Pabbly Connect

If everything is set up correctly, you will see the new document in your OneDrive folder. This confirms that Pabbly Connect is effectively automating the process of saving new Google Docs to OneDrive. Remember, the trigger checks for new documents every 10 minutes, so there may be a slight delay in syncing.

In case you want to upload files in different formats, such as PDF, you can adjust the mapping accordingly. Just ensure to specify the correct file extension when uploading to OneDrive.
