How to integrate Google Drive and Slack on Pluga

Boost this flow in your workflow

With Pluga, you connect Google Drive + Slack to build anything from the simplest integration to the most advanced flows, with several layers of logic.

  • Basic 1

    Pick the source app and the trigger

    Choose which app starts the automation and which event works as the trigger. For example, "With each new file in Google Drive".

  • Basic 2

    Set the destinations and the actions

    Select the apps that make up the flow with Slack and what Pluga should run automatically at each step. Example: "notify on a Slack channel"

  • Basic 3

    Map the information

    Point out, visually, which data from the source app should fill in each field of the destination action.

  • Intermediate

    Only move forward when it makes sense

    Set "AND" or "OR" conditions so the automation only runs in the cases that matter

  • Intermediate

    Pause the flow for as long as you need

    Set the automation to wait minutes, hours or days and resume the next action on its own
