Hello, I’m trying to make a ZAP that would save a file to a specific Google Drive depending on some criteria. The steps are the following: i get a file (presentation) with a date and a track via an interface, i look for the folder matching the date and track but when i try to save the file in the path found it does not work.

Hello, thank you for your interest and pointers. The problem was in the destination definition: i was using the link instead of the folder ID. Now it works!

Thank you
