1.Monitor new file in folder
Integrate Google Drive and file metadata tools to detect new non-deleted files and pull file content and metadata for ingestion.
Publish new folder files to central data lake
Automatically monitor new file in folder events across Google Drive and Amazon S3. Create and update when uploads qualify across foldersβso you can filter records, upload file contents, and map filenames to S3 keys without manual ETL prep.
How this automation prepares your files for ETL ingestion
When new files land in a monitored Drive folder, delays can stall downstream ETL and cause stale datasets. This automation watches Google Drive folder events and uploads file content and metadata to Amazon S3βso your team can ingest faster without manual transfers.

Without Zapier, we would have needed well over 100 employees today just to do what we're doing. We would have been out of business by now.
David Laderberg, VP of Sales
Without having automation, we would have to at least be double our size. Doubling is a bit of a euphemism β I think we would have died or fallen back into oblivion.
Marcelo Lebre, Co-Founder
Zapier helps us close far above 50% more deals than we would without it. It is a key element of our overall strategy and, therefore, of our sales pitch.
Raphael Bochner, Founder and CIO
Zapier gives us unlimited flexibility and creativity. With Zapier, you're like an artist with a blank canvas. I don't know what we'd do without it.
Rishi Shah, CEO and Co-Founder
