Google Drive + WhatsApp Business

Google Drive + WhatsApp Business integrations

Create folders in Google Drive for every new message received in WhatsApp Business

Easily organize your WhatsApp Business conversations with this handy workflow. When you receive a new message in WhatsApp Business, it initiates the process of creating a dedicated folder in Google Drive. This ensures your important documents and conversations are effortlessly collated and stored for quick access, resulting in better communication management.

When this happens...
New Message ReceivedTriggers when a customer sends a message to your WhatsApp Business phone number. Note: the test step shows a static placeholder record because WhatsApp's API does not expose message history. Real messages will only appear in Zap runs after the Zap is turned on and a customer sends a new message.
