Hi @gadav 

Good question.

For Zap 2, you’ll need to manually configure the Zap and select the desired GDrive Folder.

You cannot make that Zap trigger conditions dynamic.

Each submitted form creates a new folder. I don’t have only one folder. Do I understand it correctly that it is not possible?

Thank you for the quick response

Let’s take an example…

You have a form and it generates 3 submissions.

In your Zap 1, that will create 3 GDrive Folders.

  1. Folder A
  2. Folder B
  3. Folder C

 

If you want Zaps to trigger from files being added to each of those GDrive Folders, then you will need to manually configure 3 Zaps.
