create google drive folder and upload file is an n8n automation template that creates a folder in Google Drive and uploads a file into it on manual trigger. Reach for it when you're tired of manually setting up Drive folders for every new project or client, when you want to standardize file storage without clicking through the Drive UI each time, or when you need a ready-made building block to plug file upload logic into a larger workflow. Trigger: Manual. Integrations: Google Drive. The template handles folder creation and file upload as a two-step sequence, making it easy to adapt or extend. Direction — writing and organizing files into Google Drive, not reading or downloading from it (for retrieval use cases, check related Google Drive workflows in the catalog). Works well for freelancers and small teams standardizing their storage structure; not suitable as a fully automated pipeline without swapping the Manual Trigger for an event-based node.
