Accessing Pabbly Connect for Integration

To start using Pabbly Connect, visit the official Pabbly website. This platform allows you to automate tasks between Google Drive and OneDrive. First, sign in or create a new account if you’re a first-time user. Once logged in, navigate to the Pabbly Connect dashboard.

On the dashboard, click on the ‘Create Workflow’ button. You will be prompted to name your workflow and select a folder for it. For this integration, name it ‘Upload Google Drive Files to OneDrive’ and save it in the Automations folder. This setup is crucial for organizing your automations effectively.

Setting Up Google Drive as Trigger in Pabbly Connect

In this step, we will configure Google Drive as the trigger application in Pabbly Connect. Select Google Drive from the trigger application options. The trigger event to choose is ‘New File in Specific Folder’. This ensures that any new file uploaded to your specified Google Drive folder will initiate the workflow.

Next, click on ‘Connect’ and choose to add a new connection. You will need to sign in with your Google account and grant the necessary permissions to Pabbly Connect. After successful connection, select the specific folder you want to monitor for new files. Make sure the folder is set to be shareable to allow Pabbly Connect to access it.

• Select Google Drive as the trigger application.
• Choose ‘New File in Specific Folder’ as the trigger event.
• Connect your Google account and select the desired folder.

After selecting the folder, upload a test file to Google Drive to ensure that the trigger works correctly. This step is essential as it allows Pabbly Connect to capture the details of the newly uploaded file.

Configuring OneDrive as Action in Pabbly Connect

Now that the trigger is set up, we will configure OneDrive as the action application in Pabbly Connect. Search for OneDrive and select it as the action application. The action event to choose is ‘Upload File’. This step will ensure that whenever a new file is uploaded to Google Drive, it will automatically be uploaded to OneDrive.

Click on ‘Connect’ to establish a connection with your OneDrive account. Similar to the Google Drive setup, you will need to sign in and grant the necessary permissions. Once connected, select the folder in OneDrive where you want the files to be uploaded. Ensure that you map the file name and file URL from the Google Drive trigger.

• Select OneDrive as the action application.
• Choose ‘Upload File’ as the action event.
• Map the required fields from Google Drive to OneDrive.

After mapping the necessary fields, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’. This will upload the file to your OneDrive account, confirming that the integration via Pabbly Connect is working correctly.

Testing the Integration Workflow

To ensure that everything is functioning as expected, upload another test file to your Google Drive folder. This action will trigger the workflow set up in Pabbly Connect. After a few minutes, check your OneDrive account to see if the file has been uploaded successfully.

If the file appears in OneDrive, it confirms that the integration between Google Drive and OneDrive via Pabbly Connect is successful. You can repeat this process with different files to ensure consistency. This automation saves time and enhances productivity, making file management seamless across platforms.

In summary, the steps include setting Google Drive as the trigger, configuring OneDrive as the action, and testing the workflow. By following these steps, you can automate the file transfer process effectively.

Conclusion

In this tutorial, we explored how to upload Google Drive files to OneDrive using Pabbly Connect. This integration simplifies file management, allowing for seamless automation between the two platforms. By following the outlined steps, you can easily set up your workflow and enhance productivity.
