Google Drive is Google’s cloud storage service that allows users to store, share, and collaborate on files from anywhere. By using Google Drive as a destination, you can automatically export your processed data as CSV files, making them easily accessible and shareable across your organization.Documentation Index

1. Add your Google Drive access
- In the Destinations tab, click on the “Add destination” button located on the top right of your screen. Then, select the Google Drive (CSV) option from the list of connectors.
- Click Next and you’ll be prompted to add your access:
- First, grant the Google Authorization using an account that has access to the destination folder.
- Then, select the Google Drive folder where you want your files to be uploaded.
- Optionally, input a custom filename. If left blank, the file will be named after the data table being sent.
- Click Next.
2. Select your data to send
-
The next step is letting us know which data you want to send to Google Drive. Select the layer and then the desired table.
Tip: The table can be found more easily by typing its name.
- Click Next.
3. Configure your Google Drive CSV data destination
- Describe your destination for easy identification within your organization. You can inform things like what data it sends, to which team it belongs, etc.
- To define your Trigger, consider how often you want data to be sent to this destination. This decision usually depends on how frequently you need the CSV file updated (every day, once a week, only at specific times, etc.).
- Click Done.
Check your new destination!
- Once completed, you’ll receive confirmation that your new destination is set up!
- You can view your new destination on the Destinations page. Now, for you to be able to see it on your Google Drive, you have to wait for the pipeline to run. You can monitor it on the Destinations page to see its execution and completion. If needed, manually trigger the pipeline by clicking on the refresh icon. Once executed, your CSV file should appear in the selected Google Drive folder.
If a file with the same name already exists in the destination folder, it will be updated with the latest data instead of creating a duplicate.
