Upload a file to specific folder in Google Drive

Hi,

I would like a file to be uploaded to Google Drive at: “/Main folder/Folder A” where Folder A is a dynamic location based on value of a field in Airtable. So, it can be Folder B, Folder C … as well and these subfolders are already existed.

I tried “main_folder_id/sub_folder_name” and “/Main folder/sub_folder_name” and both are not working with error “file not found”.

What should I put into the folder location?

Thanks for any help!

Hi @xuonghy 

You’ll want to set the folder selection filed to “Custom” and input the raw ID of the Google Drive folder.

That ID happens to be this part of the URL:

Thank you for your instruction. I got it working now.

By the way, is it possible if I can create a Folder and its 3 more Sub-folder in 1 zap?
