GmailTrigger Automate streamlines your email management by automatically detecting new emails with attachments and uploading them to Google Drive. This workflow saves time and ensures important files are organized and easily accessible, enhancing productivity and reducing manual effort.
This workflow is ideal for:

- Freelancers who receive client files via email and need efficient storage solutions.
- Project Managers who want to organize attachments received from team members in Google Drive.
- Individuals who frequently handle files via Gmail and desire a streamlined process for saving them.
This workflow addresses the challenge of manually downloading and organizing email attachments. By automating the process, it:
- Saves time by eliminating repetitive tasks.
- Reduces the risk of losing important files by ensuring they are consistently uploaded to Google Drive.
- Enhances organization by naming files systematically based on the sender's email and original file name.
Users can customize this workflow in the following ways:

- Adjust Polling Frequency: Alter the pollTimes setting to change how often the workflow checks for new emails, depending on user needs.
- Change File Naming Convention: Edit the name parameter in the Google Drive upload step to customize how files are named before being saved.
- Add Additional Nodes: Users can integrate more nodes to perform further actions, such as sending notifications or processing files differently.
