  4. Set up the Export Form to PDF action.

    Assign your PDF settings by selecting the pages to be exported, and naming your PDF.

    Note: If you want to export all Form pages, leave this field blank.

    b. Click Advanced. Here you will assign your PDF a name in Filename.

    Note: If you choose not to name your PDF, your PDF will adopt the name of the corresponding completed Form.

    Click Next.

  5. Specify the following required Upload File options:

    1. Select the Connection from the drop-down menu to indicate the Google Workspace app connection you want used for your upload.

      If you leave this blank, your files will send to your personal drive.

    3. The Folder Path determines the name of your PDF, and the Google Drive folder where the PDF will be placed.

      Use Workflow Variables in this step to leverage Form data to help manage your Forms.


      Note: Do not change the File(s) or Unique Identifier options.
