Create your own Gemini and Google Docs workflow

Create custom workflows effortlessly by selecting triggers, queries, and actions. With IFTTT, it's simple: “If this” trigger happens, “then that” action follows. Streamline tasks and save time with automated workflows that work for you.

7 triggers, queries, and actions

This trigger fires when a new document is added to a Google Drive folder. Note: only works for docs created after the Applet is turned on.
