    Everytime I edit a form, a get an additional folder on Google Drive that is named like the original one but includes the
    html element repeated many times like this:

    I would like either to not get a new folder on every edit or have the naming of the new folder set to be the same as the first submission with a 2, 3, 4, x number of edits.

     

    Is that possible?

     

    Thanks!

    Hi,

    Thank you for your asking. 

    Whenever you receive a submissions, a new folder created on Google Drive. Unfortunately, there is no option to disable that in Google Drive.

    As you see in the following video, there is no such an option while integrating. You can also see that we can only modify the Folder Name according to our needs. Please look at the video:

    However, you can disable New Folder option in DropBox. In other words, you can use integrate your DropBox if you don't want to receive each submissions in a new folder. In DropBox, you receive all submissions in PDF version in only one folder. Please have a look at the following video:
