Question: How to Automate Organizing JotForm Submissions into Specific Folders in Google Drive and Dropbox

I'm looking to create an automation in Zapier that will help me organize form submissions from JotForm into specific folders in both Google Drive and Dropbox.

Here's what I need:

  • When a form is submitted via JotForm, I want the submission to be automatically saved in a designated folder in Google Drive and Dropbox.
  • I have different folders in both storage services, and I want the submissions to be sorted into these folders based on specific criteria (e.g., form type, submission date, etc.).

Could someone guide me on how to set up this workflow in Zapier? I would appreciate a step-by-step process or any tips to ensure that the forms are correctly organized in their respective folders.

Hi @Troy Tessalone! Thank you so much for your help. I'm new to this, so please bear with me. I'm currently having some issues when trying to create a Zap that connects Jotform to Dropbox. Which event should I choose to ensure that a copy of the submitted PDF or file from Jotform is automatically transferred to my Dropbox? Also, is this possible even if the form in Jotform is encrypted? Thank you!

In Jotform, you’ll also have to adjust your Security > Privacy settings to disable login to view uploaded files.
