How this automation works

Track new files added to a selected Google Drive folder as Welltory activities automatically. This Applet runs whenever a non-Google Workspace file is added to your chosen Google Drive folder and sends the event data to Welltory as a durational activity. Perfect for monitoring workflow or progress based on uploaded files across your drives.
