Description

Hi There,
I have made a Google Drive connecter using Google Service account (Auth Type)Successfully.
However i created an event trigger - “File Created” and added the conditions as mentioned in the screenshot.
But when place the file inside the configured folder the trigger is not triggering.
Can you please suggest.

@avinashy

how are you creating file?

are you uploading directly to gdrive? or a new file is created in local synced and it is being synced?

if you directly upload only it would work

cheers

@avinashy,

Check if you have longer pooling time. Here I tested the trigger and it’s working fine for me

Connection set to 1 minute pooling. To change pooling time just click on the blue color 1 minute

Hi @avinashy

If the Google Drive “File Created” trigger isn’t workinf, make sure the service account has full access to the folder, the file is uploaded via the web (not synced), and the trigger conditions aren’t too strict.
Also confirm the folder isn’t a shared drive and that polling intervals are being respected.
