Google Drive is a great way to share your files among different devices. Integrating your form with Google Drive takes less than a minute. Once you complete the integration, a copy of the data and uploaded files will instantly go to your Google Drive when a form filler submits your form.
To integrate your form with Google Drive
- In the Form Builder, go to Settings at the top.
- Select Integrations on the left.
- Search and select Google Drive.
Note: You can perform the same steps above to edit or delete your existing Google Drive integration.
- For the initial setup, select Authenticate and connect your Google Drive account. Ensure to grant the file access permission in the authentication dialog.
For previously authenticated accounts, choose the account to use, then select Add Action.
- Next, enter your desired folder name.
- Turn on Create a subfolder for each submission if needed. Enter your desired subfolder name or select Form Fields to dynamically create folders.
- Choose the PDF document to use. To rename your PDF, see How to Assign a Custom File Name to Your PDF Report.
- If your form accepts file uploads, you can send the uploaded files to your Google Drive.
- Select Save at the bottom when finished.
Your form is now connected to Google Drive. Follow the link to open your folder or use the icons in the upper-right corner to view options.

I want to put the pdf in an existing folder in my Google Drive. Why can't I choose from my existing folders OR create a new one?? When I type the name of my existing folder, it is not recognized. Instead, a new folder with the same name is created. So frustrating!

Once the Gdrive integration is set up, there doesn't seem to be a way to go back and edit the set up. I missed renaming the folder name with the form fields, and I had to start all over. I wish you had a 'go back' and edit button.

the document in the forms are coming correctly but the name of documents are irregular or user defined. Means when a user uploads a file suppose in a xyz field the name of the file which is uploaded should be xyz but the name is random. Can anything be done regarding this.

I am currently using Square to take appointments and payments. I am looking for a way to upload consents for clients to fill out when they make an appointment or when the come to the office to check in. This would be for a medspa. This kind of stuff is not in my skill set. In fact, I am terrible at it, and I don't want to lose appointments if I do intergrate with Jotform. Thank you in advance.

Very helpful and useful! Question, we use approvals for most of our forms. Is it possible to have the form copied to Gdrive after approval, not before? And if it is denied, to not be copied over? thx!

+1 to Kristen's question: "the pdfs of the forms have the same name -- the name of the folder plus .pdf. Is there any way to edit the name of the pdf that each form creates in the folder?"
It's odd (and inconvenient) that the file name has to be the same as the folder name.
Thanks!

I have 3 forms pointing to the same google folder (applicants are submitting 3 forms, and I have them all sent to one Google Drive folder to keep their materials together). This is working spectacularly well. BUT all the pdfs of the 3 forms have the same name -- the name of the folder plus .pdf. Is there any way to edit the name of the pdf that each form creates in the folder?

I was hoping there was a syntax to allow nested folders on google drive. For example:
{expense-class}/{custom-id}
