Question when Integrating with Google Drives

    I love that I am able to sync my jotform submissions to automatically send the PDF form of the submissions to my Google Drives Specific Folder. 

    2 QUESTIONS

    1. After transferring the file to my Specific Google Drive Folder, it forces another folder to be created to put the PDF file into. Then I end up with all these extra file folders. I would like it to automatically send all the PDF submission files into one folder. 

    2. When I create a separate PDF form for something completely unrelated to the other forms, it's already synced with my Google Drive folder. How can I create a new separate Google Drive folder for Each submission form I created? I would like to keep the forms separate so All PDF submissions created from form A are send to Folder A and All PDF submissions created from form B are sent to folder B. Please advise. 


    Any suggestions or ideas on how to do that? - Thank you! : )

    To clarify, you don't want the Google Drive Integration to create a new folder every time a submission is created?

    Unfortunately, there is no option to send the submission PDF into one folder only.

    If you want, we can forward a feature request to our developers. But do note that we cannot give an ETA when the feature would be implemented or will it be passed.

    Also, can you explain further how you want this feature to work? Do you want to just insert the PDF submissions inside 1 folder or separate it with unique names?

    When you Integrate Google Drive, the integration will automatically suggest the Folder name based on the Form name. If  your forms has the same names, you can edit the folder name in your Google Drive Integration by clicking on edit.
