I have a zap that check for new files in a Google Drive folder.

The zap run every 15 minutes (that’s the max i can choose in the zap config). But I need to run the the zap every one hour (or every two hours).
I tried with a schedule as the first step, but after I can no longer choose for the second step “Google Drive - New file in folder”.

Any help appreciated.

Hi @AlexWikio 

Why don’t you want the Zap to check every 15 minutes for GDrive files?

Zap trigger steps count as 0 Tasks in Zap Runs.

Thanks i’ll check that.
For the business logic in my Zap a 1 hour delay would be better.
But i did not know that a “Zap trigger” does not count as a task.
So if I understand well if my Zap triggers and there is no new file in the Google Drive, no task will be count?

Zap trigger steps always count as 0 Tasks.
