See all Google Drive→Send specific PDF attachments from Gmail to Google Drive using OpenAI
This workflow reads PDF textual content and sends the text to OpenAI. Attachments of interest will then be uploaded to a specified Google Drive folder. For example, you may wish to send invoices received from an email to an inbox folder in Google Drive for later processing. This workflow has been designed to easily change the search term to match your needs. See the workflow for more details. Prerequisites OpenAI credentials. Google credentials. How it works Triggers off on the On email received node. Iterates over the attachments in the email. Uses the OpenAI node to filter out the attachments that do not match the search term set in the Configure node. You could match on various PDF files (i.e. invoice, receipt, or contract). If the PDF attachment matches the search term, the workflow uses the Google Drive node to upload the PDF attachment to a specific Google Drive folder.
File Google Drive inbox documents into dated folders with a Google Sheets audit log
Quick overview This workflow monitors a Google Drive inbox folder for new files, classifies them by filename regex rules, files them into a Year/Month/Type folder structure in Google Drive, and logs each success or failure to a Google Sheets audit log. How it works Triggers every minute when a new file is created in a selected Google Drive folder. Evaluates the filename against configurable regular-expression rules to assign a document type, derive the year/month from the file’s created time, and build a destination path. Uses the planned destination root to find or create the required year folder, then the month folder, then the type folder in Google Drive. Moves the file into the final type folder. Appends a “Filed” audit row to Google Sheets with timestamp, original filename, matched rule, destination path, and file ID. If any step errors, appends a “Failed” audit row to Google Sheets with error details so the run continues. Setup Add Google Drive OAuth2 credentials, select the inbox folder to watch, and ensure the archive root is a different Google Drive folder to avoid reprocessing filed files. In the rules script, paste your archive root folder ID and adjust the filename rege
WRename Japan e-bookkeeping receipts and invoices with Gemini and Google Drive
Quick overview Helps Japanese businesses digitizing paper invoices and receipts under Japan's Electronic Bookkeeping Act. Files in a Google Drive INPUT folder are read with Google Gemini OCR, then copied to OUTPUT with a compliant searchable filename (date_partner_amount_type) or to SKIP for human review. Originals are never modified. How it works Runs manually to start processing. Lists up to the configured maximum number of files in a Google Drive INPUT folder and iterates through them one at a time. Downloads each file from Google Drive, detects its MIME type, base64-encodes the content, and prepares a Gemini request payload. Sends supported images and PDFs to the Google Gemini generateContent API to extract document count, transaction date, partner, amount, and document type as JSON. Builds a compliant filename in the format YYYYMMDD_partner_amount_type.ext when the response indicates a single valid document with required fields. Copies the original file to a Google Drive OUTPUT folder using the new filename, or copies it to a SKIP folder unchanged when the file type is unsupported or the extraction is ambiguous (non-document/multiple documents/missing fields). Setup Create thr
