This automation scenario allows you to connect Google Drive and FileCloud
It can be build using Zapier, a no-code workflow automation tool. Zapier allows you to create automated bots using a simple drag-and-drop interface for non-technical users. This is a ready-made scenario, but it can be customized by adding more apps, actions, filters or branches.

Part II
Next, we need to create a workflow automation scenario using graphical no-code web interface of Zapier.

Part III
Finally, we need to test this automation and publish it.
