Practical ways you can use Google Drive and Microsoft Teams
Keep teams updated on new files in Google Drive folders.
As a business owner, staying aligned with your team is crucial. When a new file is created in a Google Drive folder, Zapier can automatically send a message to a relevant Microsoft Teams channel. This ensures team members are promptly informed, fosters team collaboration, and reduces delays caused by manual file updates.
Business Owner
Alert IT team on Microsoft Teams for new IT policy folders.
An IT department often creates new policy or documentation folders in Google Drive. When a new folder is created, Zapier can instantly send a notification to the IT team's Microsoft Teams channel. This improves internal communication and ensures IT team members quickly access and align on important documents for policy compliance or troubleshooting.
ITNotify the team in Microsoft Teams when marketing files are updated.
Marketers often update campaign assets stored in Google Drive. Zapier can send an automatic notification to a designated Microsoft Teams channel whenever files in a specific marketing folder are updated. This helps the team stay up-to-date on the latest changes, reducing the risk of using outdated materials and improving overall team coordination.
